Rare Plant - Leave it Be
One of the world’s largest populations of prairie bush clover grows here. However, dueto the nature of the location, looking for it may damage it.
Note: It's best not to seek out prairie bush clover here, which on this small site is easily disturbed, vulnerable to inadvertent spread of invasive species, and found in areas with precarious footing.
