Founded in 1965, the Glide Wildflower Show is
the largest display of native flora in the northwest. Over
600 species of flowers, shrubs, grasses, ferns, lichens and
mosses are gathered by dozens of collecting teams who travel
throughout southwest Oregon from the Cascade Mountains to the
coast.
Oregon's changing weather provides each year's event with a
different combination of species in bloom. Identity of each
specimen is confirmed by professional botanists and artfully
vased for dispy.
Additional displays feature noxious weeds, medicinal plants,
natural dyes, and photographs of rare and endangered plants.
Mark your calendar for the last full weekend of April.
