Hairy beardtongue (Pentstemon hirsutus)
Hummingbirds love these wildflowers and I do too. If you look closely at this plant's stem. you can see why it's called "hairy."
A lovely clumping flower
What a pleasure to find a field of these!

They are beautiful we seem to have an enormous amount of them growing on the farm this year. The Goldfinch love them too. B
Very pretty flowers..I can see why the hummers would love them.
hairy is not usually pretty but this sure is
We have lots of hummingbirds this year. I am realizing that they are kind of territorial. They get kinda mad at me when I interfere with their flowers!
=)
What a delicate display of soft color. Very pretty!
Beautiful and such unusual looking flowers.
What a name.
Beautiful wildflowers! The birds love 'em!
Your photos are marvelous. I can only imagine how beautiful an entire field of these wildflowers would be.
Perfect for the hummers! Lovely collection of blooms, EG.
Lovely flowers and images!
What a beautiful flower, something I don't think I've seen - though whoever thought of the name has quite a sense of humor, ha!
Such a funny name for such a pretty flower!
I have seen something similar growing wild. I'm not quite sure if it is the same flower or not. Either way you have photographed it beautifully. I love the coloring.
Beautiful. I am not familiar with them.
Very pretty! I'm beginning to see the hummers around my flowers. Love those little birds.
It's lovely.
I didn't know these lovelies. So glad you shared your beautiful shots! I learned a new plant today. :)
Great flowers, the color is so beautiful.
