The dedicated section for Mid-Atlantic Native Flora is beautiful in the transition season. It showcases local plants that are naturally adapted to the D.C. area, highlighting their subtle fall change. You can see the crimson of native blueberry bushes, the bright red of sumac, and the quiet fade of goldenrod. This area offers a realistic, grounded look at what a regional ecosystem looks like in the fall, providing a quiet, educational escape from the monument buzz of the city. It’s perfect for nature lovers seeking authenticity.
