On my way from Quartzsite to the Pacific (again) I decided to camp at the BLM area just outside the south entrance to Joshua Tree National Park. Maybe someone can tell me what this flower is.
It might be Mojave Lupine. If not, it's almost certainly a cousin in the genus Fabacae. http://www.americansouthwest.net/plants/wildflowers/lupinus-odoratus.html
I tried uploading the photo to my Picture This app, but that didn't give a good answer. Try this tool: http://mywildflowers.com/identify.asp

DeleteMrs. B found some of that today and looked it up. She came up with Mojave Lupine. It's much smaller in Why.
