<p>A cluster of four hot pink flowers bloom in a dewy meadow.</p>
<p>If you’re a wildflower, how do you attract the attention of pollinators in a subalpine meadow filled with other wildflowers? By being hot pink, of course! Magenta paintbrush (<i>Castilleja parviflora</i>) is easy to spot and recognize – that color is unmistakable. Magenta paintbrush is more common on the eastern side of the mountain, such as around Sunrise, but can be found throughout the park.</p>
