Places to See Native Plants
Parks and Reserves

Many parks and reserves in San Diego County have regular guided walks or nature trails and are excellent places to begin learning about native plants. If no guided tours are available, there are many helpful field guides with identification keys and pictures. Many field guides are available from our chapter store.
