Living in California now for a year and a half here in the foothills, (originally from Illinois), honestly, i saw these going down the road and i thought, how pretty, they have lilacs here! lol! Now i know they are the California buckeye! Very informative video for a newbie like me!
I loved seeing these when I lived in calif. as well as the ceanothus. Thank you for the biology lesson on these. I had not known they were poisonous. I am able to be out and about in nature. I might not be able to boot up without an assistive device but I can hike miles on the river trail and am doing good elevation climbs in the mountain canyons. Can't squat well, so it remains to be seen if I can set up a tent. and crawl around in it. If I can then soon I'll do a 4 day pack trip parelleling the river. It's always a pleasure to see your videos and to learn more of the plant life as well.
Thanks Trilby! It’s great to hear from you. Being out in nature is the best medicine so I’m glad to hear you are getting out. Be safe and happy trails!

I like the cal. Buckeye
I just saw these on my drive down from Humboldt to San Diego and was wondering what they were. Perfect timing and great video!
