Flowers of the Mojave

This is a Web site devoted to the flowers of the Mojave Desert.
The main areas that will be covered will be Death Valley and
the Amargosa Desert as well as the Mojave National Prserve.

There will be no attempt to try and cover more than that.
It is a very large area.  It covers an altitude range from
-282' at Badwater to 11,049' on top of Telescope Peak.
Death Valley and The Amargosa are probably the driest
areas in North America, and one of the driest in the
Western hemisphere.  Average rainfall is only 2",
perhaps even less in some spots.  Temperatures can
range from 0 F (-18 C) at higher altitudes
to 134 F (57 C) in Death Valley.
That anything lives here at all is remarkable.
That something of beauty could survive and even
thrive here is nothing short of a miracle.
