It’s time for #wildflowerwednesday! This week’s bloom is the stunning Mountain Goldenbanner, a bright yellow flower that’s often mistaken for its look-alike, the Lupine. In fact, Goldenbanner’s scientific name (thermopsis montana) acknowledges this resemblance. Thermopsis combines the Greek words “thermos” (meaning “Lupine,” in this context) and “opsis” (meaning “like” or “similar”). Want to catch a glimpse of these flowers in bloom while visiting CBMR? Head up Silver Queen Road and start your search at the Paradise Lift! Photos: katieexplores_ #bewild #crestedbutte
