DESCRIPTION:Join Ken Himes and Don Thomas for our fall fountain thistle habitat restora tion work party near the intersection of I-280 and Hwy. 92. Fountain thistl e (Cirsium fontinale var. fontinale) is a federally endangered plant specie s that grows in an unusual specialized habitat, serpentine seeps, and is on ly found here and in few other nearby locations on the Peninsula. Its recov ery here is a restoration success story. Once almost completely displaced b y jubata grass, it has largely recovered here, as a result of the work done by CNPS volunteers in a cooperative project of the Santa Clara Valley and Yerba Buena Chapters. However, fountain thistle is still under threat from other non-native plants, such as yellow star-thistle, fennel and wallaby gr ass (Rhytidosperma caespitosum) and by woody plants trying to convert the a rea to shrubland or woodland. We may also be able to see late-flowering ind ividuals of another rare plant, Lessingia arachnoidea, which grows only her e and in the nearby Crystal Springs Watershed.\nSturdy gloves are recommend ed; you might also want to bring sunscreen, water, a hat, layered clothing and wear long sleeves/pants. Tools will be provided.\nDirections: We meet a t the end of Lessingia Court in San Mateo. If you can’t locate it, contact Don at This email address is being protected from spambots.
