Coastal plants, flowers, and et cetera

I wish I could show you ALL the wonderful wildflowers and native plants we've seen in the past couple of days, but that would fill a book. Besides, I don't know the names -- my brain is cluttered with info. What is the gorgeous flowering plant below? Sitting on a bench gazing at Monterey cypress was a nice break.

     

Lizards are always fun to watch. Jimmy loved seeing the ice plant draped all over the coast. We were both surprised by the native iris in bloom next to a trail on a headland overlooking the ocean. Only one there!

I do recognize vibrant California poppies and love to see a stand of them. The second pic was taken just south of Point Lobos, looking down from a high "vista point." The meadow jutting into the sea was far, far below, and it was a considerable distance from the water itself. Lastly, we found this tiny canyon filled with flowers, including beautiful lilies, fed by a small stream. Flowers are a feast for the eye.
