Lavender is one of the favorite flower plants of bees, and I love the aroma and have planted it in the garden to attract these important pollinators. It has so many useful properties as an oil and can be used for teas and desserts. I couldn’t resist creating one in bee colors.
The Matilija poppy is a California native plant, and is one of my favorites. Here are a few variations available in art prints, plus I couldn’t resist making one in red.

The prickly pear cactus is stunning when in bloom and also provides delicious edibles. This one is offered as an art print, and I highly recommend making a classic Mexican cactus salad with chopped prickly pear cactus paddles (nopalitos), tomatoes, onions, and radishes. Yummy!
