Description
Rare Stripped Lily
 

The open grasslands and blue oak woodlands of the southern Sierra Nevada foothills provide critical habitat for these exceptional flowers at Lewis Hill Preserve.  In 1994, the Hawkins family donated this property north of Porterville to the Kern River Research Center.  Six years later, the title transferred to the Tule Oaks Land Trust, now a chapter of SRT.
 

Please visit the Sequoia Riverlands Trust website for a map.

Note: This nature preserve is not yet regularly open to the public. Check our online calendar or sign up for our e-newsletter to learn about public programs and special events at Lewis Hill Preserve. Look out for the annual spring wildflower walk, a unique guided tour of rare, regional flowers.
