Volunteer holding dotted gayfeather (Liatris punctata) dug up during prairie plant rescue on a limestone prairie ecosystem slated for development in the greater Blackland Prairie, Garland, Texas, United States, USA. Limestone prairie ecosystems support unique plant communities that thrive in the thin-soiled, xeric environment. This rescue was a collaborative effort between the Botanical Research Institute of Texas, Blackland Prairie Chapter of Native Prairies Association of Texas and the initial locators of this site: Akash Munshi and Randy Johnson with the Blackland Prairie Restoration Club.
