This presentation is for wildflower enthusiasts, hikers, amateur botanists, and everyone interested in the flora of New Mexico's central mountains. Join Larry Littlefield for a discussion of the wildflowers and flowering shrubs that bloom from base to crest at different times of year and at different elevations in our Sandia, Manzanita, and Manzano Mountains.
