Clarkia purpurea v.
purpurea is sometimes included in seed mixes. The Winecup
Clarkia puts on a great show in the late
spring. It can often be found in a grassland or shrubby setting near the coast the
length of the state, extending down into Baja, and up to Washington. I spread wildflower
seeds in October or November with the first rains.
