I was 3 weeks to late to catch these Eutrema salsugineum bloom. But at least I found them after many years of searching. Next year blossoms.
Offset central vein on leaves. Abundant. Prior report from here.
Released after taking these pics due to their status as a protected species. If this ID is accurate - fantastic to see them thriving like this; adults and fry everywhere!
