Indian paintbrush is wild flower found in Western United States and northern Mexico in sunny areas of mountain meadows, stream banks, open woods, semi-desert, high desert and roadsides. The attractive "flowers" that we admire are actually leaf-like parts, the bracts and sepals. Castilleja plants come in red, orange, yellow, white or cream and purple. They bloom from April to September.
