About this episode
The acclaimed Theodore Payne Wild Flower Hotline, founded in 1983, offers free weekly online and recorded updates – posted each Friday from March through May – on the best locations for viewing spring wildflowers in Southern and Central California. All locations are on easily accessible public lands and range from urban to wild, distant to right here in Los Angeles. We balance the spectacle of annual flower displays with perennial plants and their spring color.The Hotline is meant to help people enjoy the unique and beautiful nature of Southern California. While super blooms are a beautiful and awe-inspiring natural phenomenon, they are also delicate and are easily damaged by human activity, so it is important to enjoy them responsibly and minimize the impact on fragile ecosystems. Please…Stay on designated trails Share the trails; be respectful of others Visit on weekdays and/or off-peak hours, if possible Do not collect or trample wildflowers Remember your experience(s) through photos
