Alpine Wildflowers, Mount Revelstoke National Park, British Columbia, Canada 10

Description : Starting in late July, snowmelt permitting, these alpine areas become wildflower meadows. Patches of blue lupine join white valerian and yellow arnica among the ground-hugging heathers. The vermilion or red flowers of the Indian paintbrush are a ruse; but they serve well to attract pollinating hummingbirds to the true flowers hidden at their bases. Lacy phacelias grow in moist crevices, and mounds of moss campion carpet the rocks.
