Lupine Pin

After the smoke clears from a forest fire or prescribed burn, Lupine is one of the first signs of new life, blanketing the blackened earth in a sea of vibrant purple. As a nitrogen-fixing plant, its roots work to replenish the scorched soil with essential nutrients. This pioneering flower bravely sets the stage for the forest’s recovery, creating fertile ground for the life that will follow to revitalize Yosemite’s forest floors.
