Prairies change weekly in summer as plants grow and bloom so a hike is the best way to see them.




KANSAS CITY Mo -- A healthy Missouri prairie in June is lush green and sprinkled with pink, yellow, red and white. Walk into the prairie for a closer look and you’ll see the color comes from wildflowers such as purple prairie coneflowers waving in the wind.

Prairies change weekly in summer as plants grow and bloom. And with grasses growing taller, such as big bluestem grass already in flower, some of the wildflowers are tucked down into the green growth. A hike on the prairie is the best way to see them.
