Bright yellow buttercups, pale-pink and creamy white milkmaids, orange poppies, deep-blue lupine, garnet-hued warrior’s plume—it’s a veritable color wheel at the park right now, with springtime wildflowers sprinkling our meadows and woods. On this gentle hike, we’ll look for easy-to-spot blooms and learn keys to identifying them.
If you’ve got a field guide to wildflowers, bring it! We’ll also share tips on taking great photos of flowers, even with your iPhone. Wear comfortable shoes, bring a full water bottle, and pack extra clothes for changeable weather.
