In the springtime, this area transforms into a vibrant display of wildflowers, most notably the purple Downingia—commonly known as “calicoflower.” These delicate blossoms thrive in seasonal wetlands and add a striking splash of color to the landscape. This spot marks the final interpretive sign along the Lost Slough Wetlands Walk. To complete your journey, continue straight ahead and carefully cross Franklin Boulevard to return to the Visitor Center.
