Mostly Butter

There are two common species of Butter and Eggs wildflowers found in Colorado. They are called "Butter and Eggs" because their flowers are pale yellow ("butter") and tinged with orange ("eggs").

 

This is Tall Butter and Eggs, aka Dalmatian Toadflax (Linaria dalmatica), deemed an invasive non-native species in Colorado. But they looked very attractive in the grassy slope at Red Rocks Park.
