Popcorn Flowers found blooming in the Anza Borrego Desert State Park in Borrego Springs California. In the Forget-Me-Not family (Boraginaceae), the genus Plagiobothrys is referred to as the popcorn flower. There are more than 40 species of this genus in California alone, all difficult to distinguish one from another. This slender, hairy plant grows 6 to 20 inches high. It has spatula-shaped leaves up to 4 inches in length, most of which emerge from a basal tuft. Leaves higher on the stem are smaller.
