One of a Kind
The Dwarf Woolly Meadowfoam grows nowhere else in
the world except on top of Upper and Lower Table Rocks!
Dwarf Woolly
Meadowfoam
It’s an ordinary looking flower, but
did you know that it has
something in common with
a sperm whale?
The Oil!
Scientists have discovered that the
seeds of the meadowfoam contain a
very high quality oil that is similar to
sperm whale oil. We use this type of
oil on spaceships, airplanes, and in
cosmetics.
Please admire with care.
They are Very Rare!
What does it look like?
This plant grows in the wet areas on
top of both Table Rocks. It grows
low to the ground and has small
leaves. The flower is small and white
with five petals. It usually blooms
sometime in April.
Remember! Spare a flower, share a flower!
If you pick a flower, no one else can enjoy its beauty.
