Flora and Wildlife
The cedar glades at Cedars of Lebanon are the ecological highlight of this corridor. These habitats support rare plant species including Tennessee coneflower (Echinacea tennesseensis), an endangered species endemic to the cedar glades of Middle Tennessee. Spring wildflower season brings out glade phlox, limestone fame flower, and other specialists adapted to the thin, rocky soil.
The cedar forest itself — dominated by Eastern red cedar — provides dense cover and habitat for a range of bird species. White-tailed deer are common throughout the corridor. Near Center Hill Lake and Percy Priest Lake, watch for great blue herons, osprey, and various waterfowl depending on the season.
