The Watson Rare Native Plant Preserve has many rare species of native plants, including seven species of orchids, ten species of ferns, several milkweeds, gentians, wild azaleas, blueberries, trilliums, violets and four of the five types of carnivorous plants native to North America.

The Watson Rare Native Plant Preserve was created by the late Geraldine Watson, one of the activists who worked to create the Big Thicket National Preserve.  Later, as Plant Ecologist/Ranger for the National Park Service, she delineated the vegetation zones of the BTNP units and collected and catalogued the plant life of the Big Thicket Area. About four miles southeast of Warren, in an area that was being developed around Lake Hyatt, Watson discovered a site that exhibited most of the Big Thicket plant communities. She purchased as much of it as she could and, worked to restore it to its original condition and left it as a preserve for upcoming generations.
