Collomia grandiflora (great collomia) - Polemoniaceae.
There are four other Collomia spp. native to western WA. This one grows in dry, open areas at low to middle elevations. The best part about this one is probably the bright purple anthers in contrast with the peach colored petals. The Polemoniaceae, or Phlox, family characteristically has five united petals and five united sepals. The sepals are pretty difficult to see in the photo above but the united petals are clearly visible. Elpel describes the blooms of this family as "five united petals forming tubular flowers with a flat face". This species gets up to 1 meter in height, and the corolla are about 2-3 cm long (pretty big). This is the only native Collomia species with salmon-colored blooms, the others are either bluish or pinkish (Hitchcock).
Some other genera in the Polemoniaceae family: Polemonium, Phlox, Microsteris, Gilia, Linanthus, Navarretia.
