Info sheets on the desert garden flowers

I’m nearly done making my own info sheets on each flower that is to be grown in my year-round-color desert flower garden.  My hope was to find all the medical/edible uses for each species.  Not all of them have have such known properties, so at the least, each page contains a picture and information like size & bloom season, etc. 

It’s turned out to be a good thing that I undertook this little project, b/c it turns out that one of the flowers (Lupinus sparsiflorus), unrealized by me, is poisonous.

I am going to be adding the pages to our family’s nature notebook.

I would post them here, but b/c I’ve copy-and-pasted from various sources, there are probably copywrite issues at stake, so I won’t.  However, if anyone really wants , post here and I’ll e-mail them to you.  They were created in WordPad, and they’re each one or two pages, with one or two pics and text, so the files are small.
