Dicerandra Scrub Sanctuary

Hours of operation: Monday through Sunday, day use only.

This 44-acre sanctuary is named after an endangered mint plant, Dicerandra thinicola, also known as the "Titusville mint". This beautiful shrub has bright purple flowers and is endemic to the Titusville area, which means it is found nowhere else in the world. The sanctuary also protects scrub, scrubby flatwoods, and depression marshes with the hiking trail leading through both the scrubby flatwoods and marsh habitats.
