Long-stalk spring-parsley about to bloom

Descrição:

Cymopterus longipes very close to blooming. Very small at this stage.Here also: Erodium cicutarium, most consider it to be an undesirable weed of non-native origin; it was however in the Salt Lake valley long before European immigration/settlement, and it is widely naturalized in the western United States. It is believed to have been brought to North America by Spaniards, originally via Mexico and then it spread perhaps in part by the horses (one hypothesis) that the Spanish brought with them in the 17th century.
