The four major vegetation communities currently found in Flower Mound are post oak forest, mixed hardwood forest, oak-hardwood savannah, and grasslands some species of those:

• Quercus stellata – is a relatively small tree, typically 33–49 ft tall and trunk 12–24 in diameter, though occasional specimens reach 98 ft tall and 55 in in diameter. The leaves have a very distinctive shape, with three perpendicular terminal lobes, shaped much like a Maltese cross.
• Carya Texana – grows up to 135 ft tall. It has dark gray to black bark with a tight “diamond” patterning. The leaves usually have a dense coating of scales, imparting a rusty brown color. They are pinnately compound usually with seven leaflets, but sometimes five or nine. 
• Ulmus americana – The American elm is a deciduous hermaphroditic tree which, before the introduction of DED, commonly grew to more than 100 feet tall with a trunk whose diameter at breast height was more than 4 feet, supporting a high, spreading umbrella-like canopy. The leaves are alternate, 2.8–8 in long, with double-serrate margins and an oblique base.
• Ulmus crassifolia – The Cedar elm is a medium-sized deciduous tree that can grow up to 60 feet tall. The leaves are rough and serrated like the American elm, but they are smaller in size.

• Murrell Park – It’s a nice lakeside community park to hike or spend the day by the water with free entry. There are some trails but mostly used by bikers. There are a few areas too by the lake where you can swim or launch a boat or kayak.
