Phenology

Our Blazing star's are almost in full bloom! They are a sight to see. Walk to the kiosk & pickup a Flower Identification Guide & head south along the main trail. As you come to the first trail around you will see a mass of Blazing Stars! Keep on walking past the oak groove toward the square of pines. On the west side you will see a field of Blazing Star on the ridge! Also, near the square of pines. You can walk our HSP & see some Blazing Star close - some more than others! Perhaps - we should call the HSP "The Blazing Star Prairie?" Hope you enjoy the pictures Max & I shot!
