The Byrd Park Tree Walk features trees that are easily viewed from the path. All are mature trees with permanent labels on the trunk. Take a close look and you can find red maple flowers in very early spring, sourwood flowers in early summer, beech nuts a little later. Notice the great variety of leaf shapes and distinctive bark. There is always something to see and each season is different, so visit more than once!
