Serpentine Grassland Plants of Ring Mountain describes a rare group of plants that have evolved to thrive in serpentinite soil which is full of heavy metals and poor in nutrients. These plants, mostly California natives, create spectacular spring wildflower displays, unimpeded by the competition found in more nutrient-rich areas.
