We are twin brothers devoted to Earth adventures and environmental protection. We've been buddies since we were in utero. We produce videos, in high and ultra-high definition, photographs, articles, and books covering topics on understanding and enjoying National Parks, natural and human history, including native cultures. Our YouTube channel has videos on the above topics. Search Robinson Twins, Richard and Robert. At the bottom of the page, click on Older Posts to see more.
This unusual plant has white flowers emerging from the center of a circular leaf. It was used as food by the native California people and the gold miners of the 19th century. So it can be called Indian lettuce or miner's lettuce. Its scientific name is Claytonia perfoliata. These plants are found all over California. I even have it growing in my yard, even though I made no attempt to cultivate it.
Remember, it's not just a picture, it's a story!
