The Bladder plant is also called the Desert Trumpet. Here is a link to more information.

The Sego Lily is Utah's state flower. The flower can be up to 3" across. And here is the link for it.

You ladies are truely amazing - and it MUST be said-----we are living in a terrible time in history - all the disasters - either man-made or natural that have plagued us - between all the tornadoes, the hurricanes, the oil spills, and earthquakes, we need to refocus on the absolutely "plusses" in our lives. The simple beauty of the area in which we live, the endearing friendships that we have made, and of course, this site, which has opened up our worlds and brought them closer together. Oh! need I forget the common denominator of QUILTING!! ha! I, for one, appreciate all of you and your participation in this thread expecially!!
