Painted-Cup Paintbrush (Castilleja coccinea)

Great Lakes region, USA. June 2026.

Also known as Scarlet Paintbrush or Indian Paintbrush. These are a common wildflower from late spring to early summer. I found this one in a local fen that houses plenty of beautiful flowers.

I love these flowers, and also they appear on the artwork of one of my favourite albums.
