Although the border between 29 Palms and the protected Reserve of Joshua Tree National Park (North Entrance) is clearly demarcated politically, in the natural world, they overlap. Many of the native Mojave Desert species found within the Park can also be found in 29 Palms. Among them is a beautiful wildflower known to botany as Gilia Stellata and commonly as Star Gilia. Their Corollas (petals collectively) are in shades of white, purple, or pink. Native ecology can be visualized here because the city has only been partially developed. Long may it remain as such.

With over 100 representatives of the Genus Cryptantha (Forget Me Nots) found in the Western United States, they can be difficult to tell apart by flowers (usually white) and stems (generally with short hairs) alone. Here, in 29 Palms, species can be visualized in vibrant growth after a very moist Winter begins to warm into Spring. Pre Contact organsims of the Mojave Desert are observable in this locale because the city is only partially developed. Long may it remain a habitat for native ecology.

Because the city of 29 Palms has only been partially developed, many Pre Contact species of the Southern Mojave Desert continue to survive in the margins. One such contender is a small shrub with flowers in shades of white and pink known botanically as Eriogonum Fasciculatum. Also known by the common names East Mojave Buckwheat, or California Buck Wheat, they will remain in the locale as long as our efforts towards preservation of native ecology.

As the notably wet Winter of 2019 begins to fade under Springs presence, land slowly warms, and Pre Contact species of Mojave Desert plants burst into life. Chylismia Brevipes (Mojave Sun Cup), Chylismia Claviformis (Brown Eyed Primrose), Phacelia Distans (Distant Scorpion Weed), Phacelia Campanularia (Desert Bells), Amsinckia Tessellata (Checker Fiddle Neck), Cylindropuntia Ramosissima (Diamond Cholla), Psorothamnus Spinosus (Smoke Tree) and representatives from the Genus Cryptantha are among the organisms which can be visualized in competition here, near the 49 Palms exhibit of Joshua Tree National Park. This area remains a habitat for native ecology with assistance from laws protecting the Reserve, and the closeby city of 29 Palms being only partially developed. Long may it stay respected and intact, for sake of our future generations.
