The Indigenous Flowers of Southern California from Funny Or Die is a hilarious mockumentary-style show exploring the lives and experiences of several characters living in Southern California, all of whom are deeply obsessed with the native flowers of the region. Led by the intrepid and somewhat hapless botanist, Dr. David Barbara (played to hilarious effect by actor Ed Begley Jr.), the show follows a group of flower enthusiasts as they explore the natural landscape of Southern California, searching for rare and elusive blooms and learning about the rich history and culture of the area.

Along the way, viewers are introduced to a wacky cast of characters, including a surfer dude who is passionate about the flower known as the "beach bling", a yoga instructor who meditates with the aid of native plants, and a former circus clown who uses flower petals as part of her act.

Throughout the show, the characters engage in a variety of absurd antics, including holding a flower-picking competition, trying to cross-pollinate various species in order to create new hybrids, and even attempting to create a "flower orchestra", in which different blooms are used as musical instruments.

Despite the zany humor and over-the-top antics, however, The Indigenous Flowers of Southern California from Funny Or Die also offers a surprisingly poignant look at the natural beauty of the region, as well as the deep connections that many people feel with the land and its indigenous flora.

Interspersed with stunning shots of fields of wildflowers and panoramic views of the California landscape, the show is a testament to the power of nature to inspire and delight, as well as a hilarious send-up of the often-quirky subcultures that exist within Southern California.

Overall, The Indigenous Flowers of Southern California from Funny Or Die is a must-watch for anyone who loves offbeat humor, stunning visuals, and a touch of heartwarming nostalgia for a simpler way of life. Whether you're an avid gardener, a nature enthusiast, or just looking for a good laugh, this unique and charming show is definitely worth a watch.
