In this annual tradition, Chapter members share photos of notable plants and places they have visited in 2017. Native plant species are well-adapted to thrive in wet and dry years, and in 2017 we saw the results of an extraordinarily wet rainy season. This abundance of rain and snow led to “superblooms” in some parts of California ̶ did you find and photograph any of these areas? Or maybe you found something more subtle and maybe a bit sublime? If so, please consider showing your images and/or stories with others at this fun event. And if you don't have any photos to share, come to enjoy an abundance of beautiful photos and maybe hear a few stories highlighting our remarkable flora and scenery.

If you’d like to share your photos or other materials, please RSVP by Sunday, January 21st by emailing Kevin Bryant at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or calling (408) 348- 9470; and let him know about the materials you’d like to share from 2017. Time allotted per person will depend on how many participants RSVP. Whether you have photos to share or not, join us for a fun midwinter celebration of the beauty and tenacity of native plants and their habitats.

CNPS General Meetings are free and open to the public.
