Kalmia Trail Brings Mountain Laurel To Hitchcock Woods
In Hitchcock Woods, Ben Nett Tucker notes seasonal crowds for Kalmia latifolia known as mountain laurel calico bush or spoonwood. The Kalmia Trail, created in the late 1970s by Courtney Conger and Nancy Harrington, allows visitors to view thriving kaolin moist slopes, with notable specimens along a hillside above the Horse Show Ring.
