From coastal rainforests to the high desert, Oregon’s diverse landscape produces a stunning variety of plant life. This richness impacts all Oregonians — ranchers, wildflower enthusiasts, gardeners or connoisseurs of local brews. The Oregon Flora Project provides information about the plants of the state in ways that are relevant to all citizens. The project coordinates hundreds of volunteers and scientists who are carefully recording details of the state’s botanical resources. At the Corvallis Science Pub on September 12, Linda Hardison, director of the Oregon Flora Project, showed what they have discovered and how citizens can use the results to launch their own investigations into biodiversity, gardening with natives, weeds, rare plants and more. “Having accurate knowledge about the plants that surround us can help us make good decisions at many levels, from the plants we select for our gardens to the land use policies implemented by our government,” adds Hardison. “A new Flora, coupled with a website that reflects the most current information, is a valuable tool to inform such decisions.”
