There were swaths of goldfields and pockets of other wildflowers there, but the tall, thick grass fueled by rainstorms crowded the views.

At Los Padres National Forest along the Central California coast, swaths of California poppies, California buttercups, purple shooting stars and goldfields fill the slopes.

Stretches of the reserve are covered in tiny yellow flowers called goldfields.

If you want to get up close and personal with blankets of goldfields, Canterbury bells, filaree and other native plants, your best bet is to take a hike.

The large patches of yellow can contain a number of different species such as goldfields, which often grow in same areas as the poppies.
