Castilleja miniata (Giant Red Indian Paintbrush)
The Giant Red Indian Paintbrush features summer-blooming flower clusters that reach heights of 1 to 2 feet. Their vibrant colours vary from rich red to shades of pink and yellow-orange. Notably, the striking appearance is mainly due to prominent bracts that conceal numerous small, inconspicuous flowers beneath.
