Mural #15
WILD FLOWERS OF THE MOJAVE
Wildflowers of the Mojave Was the 15th mural created as a part of the Main Street Murals project. The master artist was Kathy Fierro. Depending on the previous winter’s rainfall, wildflower seeds that have been dormant since the heat of the previous summer will germinate and fill the desert with color. Sometimes the bloom is moderate; sometimes it is very scarce; but some years it is spectacular. The flowers pictured on this mural are typical of what can be seen in parts of the desert in the spring.
Death Valley, Anza Borrego State Park, Joshua Tree National Park, Lancaster Poppy fields and various area canyons often treat the visitor to beautiful carpets of flowers in March and April.
