Twenty-four hours a day, March through May, anyone can call the hotline at Theodore Payne Wildflower Hotline at (818) 768-3533 or visit www.theodorepayne.org to find the best places to view wildflowers in California. The hotline message is narrated by Emmy Award-winning actor Joe Spano (Hill Street Blues, Apollo 13, NYPD Blue) and is updated every Thursday evening with new information on more than 90 wildflower sites. The web site www.theodorepayne.org also features weekly reports covering mostly Southern California locations. The site provides web links to dozens of flower-watching destinations and lists both the common and botanical name of each flower mentioned, and where and when it is blooming.
