I had a great time at the Kissimmee Prairie Park Preserve at their spring wildflower walk! It's similar the the prairies of the mid-west: flat, grass-dominant. It also burns one a year, which is SUPER frequent. It guarantees that it will remain a tree-less, open landscape. tenacious fire-loving herbs, shrubs and flowers were our goal for the walk. The pink orchid steals the show, only appearing immediately after the burn and then disappearing back into the soil after being pollinated, to await the next burn! #dryprairie #wildflowers #florida #prescribedfire #kissimmeeprairie (at Kissimmee Prairie Preserve State Park)
