This pretty pink and white annual recently bloomed amongst our poppies and lupine that came from a free 'wildflower mix' , and I had to use Google Lens to identify it! Also known as "Farewell to Spring", Clarkia is an easy "spread it and leave it" seed and, as you can see, definitely a bright addition to the garden.
I'll add that as a bonus, compared to the wild, almost bully-like nature of California and similar poppies in the garden, the Clarkia seems to be a bit more disciplined - i.e., sticking in their area, not growing crazy tall to overwhelm existing plants, etc. So that's a thumbs up for moi!
