As expected, some leopard lilies, Lilium pardalinum ssp. pardilinum, were indeed blooming at Coggins Park on June 16, 2021. Photo by Chris Harvey.

About a month ago, I visited Coggins Park and found hundreds of lilies that were not yet in bloom. You can read about that trip here: Coggins Park, May 22, 2021.

On June 16, I revisited Coggins Park with Bob Madison and Don Gilmer.  This time, we found a few leopard lilies in bloom, as well as several western azaleas.  The cycladenia (AKA Sacramento waxy-dogbane) were just about finished blooming.

Here are some photos I took on June 22, at or near Coggins Park, with my wife Billie and daughter Ciara, together with our three dogs—Baxster, Tiny, and Stella. Enjoy! ~Chris Harvey
