Briarwood
Wikipedia calls Caroline Dormon a "botanist, horticulturist, ornithologist,
historian, archeologist, preservationist, naturalist, conservationist, and
author." She's revered in these parts for helping end the clear-cutting of
Louisina's forests and getting the 604,000 acre Kisatchie National Forest
established.
From my point of view, she brought flower species to Louisiana, and saved
natives and so much of my flower work would not be possible without her.
Yesterday I went to Briarwood, the Caroline Dormon Nature Preserve, and
visited her cabin.

I'll be posting more from my visit in the next day or so.
