  shooting_star.jpg - Desert Shooting Star (Dodecatheon conjugens var. conjugens) Also called a Bonniville or Slimpod Shooting Star. This is a very pretty flower that blooms right after the Grass Widows and is about the same color. It likes damp ground, often in small gullies. The Spring winds are hard on Shooting Stars and Grass Widows, damaging the petals soon after they open. Notice the dark filament tube.
