Natural History Wanderings

Anza-Borrego State Park reports on april 2, 2018

With only about an inch of rain this winter, conditions have not been good for a very impressive display of annual wildflowers this spring. But at the Visitor Center, some shrubs are blooming, and a careful observer can find a few annuals here and there. Our many species of cacti have beautiful blossoms, and the palo verde trees are starting to show their delightful yellow flowers!

Day Use Fees: developed campground areas $10 per car, every day; Visitor Center $10 per car, Fri-Sat-Sun and Holidays

If you would like to receive updates as different wildflowers start coming into bloom, we suggest that you check back here, or join the email list of our nonprofit partner, Anza-Borrego Foundation.
