Along the FL/GA border and Wolf Creek Trout Lily Preserve. Millions flower in 2-3 weeks and 100s of visitors come to see.

Yaupon holly that does fine with prescribed burns given the persistent roots. This survived mechanical bedding by previous owner as they put in Longleaf. I cut a nasty 8’ Sand pine that was hiding the berries. Only a 1000 more Sandies to eradicate ..
