Welcome to our database of plants in the Native Garden.  Check back from time to time as we continue to add photographs of plants throughout the season. The plant records are compiled by volunteers and describe plant taxonomy, characteristics, bloom time, seed collection time, garden location, and animal associates. Our goal is to build this catalog of plants in the garden and have the data available as a resource to the community.
