    Wild desert bush flowers looking the same
    1.Joshua tree national park, Bajada Nature Trail. I think it was the hottest spot(hill) in the park and almost everything was already out of bloom. Can it be Desert Lavender, Hyptis emoryi?

    Curious what the 'A' in A. mellifera stands for. I know Apis mellifera is the European Honeybee . . .
