Ouachita National Forest

May 04, 2016 by Travis Ward in Plant Hunt

In March, I was able to explore the backwoods of Ouachita National Forest in southeastern Oklahoma, among the Ouachita Mountains. This mountain range extends into western Arkansas and south of the Ozarks, the Arkansas River separating the two.

Ennis Bluebonnet Trails

April 17, 2016 by Travis Ward in Plant Hunt

One of Texas' most notable wildflowers, and the state flower, is Lupinus texensis, or Texas Bluebonnet, and there is a festival centered around this flower over one weekend in April each year in Ennis, Texas, a community about 30 miles south of Dallas.
