Magnolia denudata (Yulan Magnolia var. 'Yellow River')
In my neighborhood there seems to be a regular schedule to flowering in magnolia trees. First come the white star magnolias and then the pink magnolias start to bloom. At the end of the spring flowering season these pale yellow ones put on one last show. Soon the curtain will fall and there will be no more performances until next year. My advice? Enjoy your local magnolia flowers while you still have a chance.

Duele que prefieras la falsedad de mil flores de plástico para sepultarme en lo más profundo de tu corazón. Duele las espinas que clavas en el alma, duele el constante anhelo de buscarte en el momento en que preferí olvidarte. Cruel tortura, mi ser se consume en llamas de amargura.

Erythronium americanum (yellow trout lily, kondo)
On my recent trip to Van Dusen Botanical Garden, I ran into several plantings of this interesting wildflower. I knew it was some kind of lily but luckily they had a stem in a labeled vase next to the entrance.
The yellow trout lily is native to eastern North America but I've never seen one growing on the west coast. It gets its name from the mottled appearance of its leaves which, supposedly, look like the skin of a brook trout. I must admit, I really have to put my imagination on 'high beam' to see the resemblance myself.
