Flora of Virginia
This Project is devoted to produce the Flora of
Virginia, gathering the legacy of more than three centuries of Virginia
botanists into a modern work. The Flora of Virginia will open the natural
world to a new generation of botanists, natural resource managers, and
natural historians who can further expand our knowledge and contribute to the
conservation of our rich natural heritage. This Project will:
- Provide a
guide to the identification, habitat, status, and distribution of
Virginia's plants for professional and avocational users;
- Assimilate
and build on the rich tradition of botanical exploration in Virginia;
- Incorporate
current genetic-based information in addition to traditional taxonomic
approaches; and
- Increase
interest in the appreciation and conservation of Virginia's flora.

Distribution
Maps
We will be creating distribution
maps of our records from the following groups: Carnivorous Plants,
Rare Flora and Orchids. Additionally, we
will have a Miscellaneous grouping of maps that are derived
from data sets that don't belong to one of the above categories, but have
been databased in full.
