Plants

This is a list of the vascular plants that I’ve found or planted on our land.  It includes flowering plants, gymnosperms, and ferns and club mosses.  (Bryophytes: mosses, liverworts and hornworts, are on a separate list.)

Most of the names are linked to photos that I’ve taken.  I’ve marked species which are exotics, and ones that weren’t here when we arrived.

* Exotic species – not native

+ Native species that weren’t here when we first explored – as far as I know – and that I’ve used in my plantings

# Species that I didn’t plant, and I didn’t notice when we first arrived.  They may have come in with seeds I purchased, or were brought in by animals, or maybe were here all along and I just didn’t see them.
