Land & Water
Starting at the entrance off FM 243, the property gently slopes upward then crests near the middle of the tract which provides a great build site far enough off the road to provide privacy and to take advantage of the long-range panoramic views. As the name suggests, this property is a prairie/grassland but also has a few mid-range trees starting to make an impact. This grassland is diverse and will yield beautiful wildflowers in years of average rainfall. The grass layer is composed of Silver Bluestem, KR Bluestem, Sideoats Grama, Texas Grama, and Texas Wintergrass. Trees and shrubs observed include Mesquite, Hackberry, Sweet Gum, Ashe Juniper, Agarita, Fragrant Sumac, Prickly Pear, and Catclaw Acacia. Other forbs and wildflowers present are Indian Blanket, Texas Paintbrush, Golden Prairie Clover, Illinois Bundleflower, Queens Delight, Prostrate Bundleflower, Snow on the Prairie, Broomweed, Horsemint, Prairie Tea, Antelope Horn, Western Ragweed, and Common Tickseed.
