Default Spring flowers

Oh, and I'm a Husky season ticket holder, and things haven't been going well
lately...

While I can tolerate "Evergreen Huckleberry", I am afraid that
"California Huckleberry" offends me, being born here in Washington, and
attending UW. Every time I hear "California" the hair stands up on the
back of my neck... Whilst "European...." doesn't have that effect

This one is a European Huckleberry, and it grows wild around here,
even on
the beach dunes in sand.


I thought maybe Geranium robertianum, hard to tell from the picture
though.
Also - why do you think the Huckleberry is introduced, the picture looks
like the native Vaccinium ovatum, and I believe you have some other
species up there


No one mentioned California.
