Welcome to the Nature and Science section of the John Muir National Historic Site website. There is a large variety of plants, animals and insects that inhabit this park, including the many acres of Mount Wanda. We work hard to protect and preserve this land and it's inhabitants. There are many native and some non-native species that thrive here. We have provided lists of all the animals, plants and insects that we are aware of, which are accessible by clicking on the sub-menus underneath the main menu of "Nature and Science". From time to time, we are looking for volunteers to help with maintaining the plants and land around the John Muir NHS and Mount Wanda. If you are interested in volunteering, you may contact: Keith Park Horticulturalist 925-228-8860 Ext. 6312 QuicklinksJohn Muir NHS: Plant ListJohn Muir NHS: Native Grasses John Muir NHS: Wildflowers John Muir NHS: Plant ListAppleApricot Atlas Cedar Autumn Sage Black Locust Black Walnut Blue Elderberry Bluegum Eucalyptus California Poppy California Wild Rose California Fuchsia California Hibisucs California Scrub Oak Canary Island Date Carmel Creeper Catalina Cherry Cedar-of-Lebanon Chasmanthe Cherokee Rose Chinese Wisteria Coast Live Oak Coast Silk Tassel Common Fig Cork Oak Coulter Pine Coyote Bush Deodar Cedar Douglas Iris English Hawthorn English Walnut Fuchsia-flowering Gooseberry Gian Sequoia Grapes: Muscat,Tokay, Zinfandel Harison's Yellow Rose Honey Locust Honey Mesquite Incense Cedar Italian Stone Pine Japanese Plum Japanese Flowering Quince Jeffery Pine Lady Bank's Rose Lemon Loquat Manzanita Matillija Poppy Mexican FanPalm Mourning Cypress Naked Lady Olive Orange Oregon Grape Oregon White Oak Pacific Dogwood Pacific Willow Peach Pear Pecan Periwinkle Plum Pomegranate Purple Needle Grass Quince Red Fescue Red Hot Poker Redwood Sticky Monkeyflower Strawberry Tree John Muir NHS: Native GrassesPoacaeae (Grass)Spike Redtop (Agrostis exarata) California Brome (Bromus carinatus) Blue Wild Rye (Elymus glaucus) Giant Wild Rye (Leymus codensatus) Creeping Wild Rye (Leymus triticoides) California Melic (Melica californica) Torrey Meli (Melica torreyana) Foothill Needlegrass (Nasella lepida) Purple Needlegrass (Nasella pulchra) One-sided Bluegrass (Poa secunda) Few-flowered fescue (Vulpia microstachys) John Muir NHS: WildflowersAmaranthaceae (Amaranth)Anacardiaceae (Sumac) Apiaceae(Carrot) Western Poison Oak Western Poison Ivy Rattlesnake weed Bladder Parsnip Mountain Sweet Cicely Foothill Lomatium Kellogg's Yampah Purple Sanicle Pacific Snakeroot Aristolochiaceae (Birthwort) California Dutchman's Pipe Asclepiadaceae (Milkweed) Heart-leaved Milkweed Narrowleaf Milkweed Asteraceae (Sunflower) Yarrow Blow Wives California Dandelion California Sagebrush California Mugwort Woodland Aster Pacific Aster Coyote Brush Horseweed Golden Yarrow Fluff Weed Prostrate Pigweed |
