What is a Flora?
A flora is a technical publication containing descriptions and keys to all plant species in a region. The Flora of Saskatchewan has descriptions, keys, line drawings or scans, and distribution maps of all species in the province. We will eventually produce a CD that will include photographs of all of Saskatchewan's species.
Floras are a fundamental resource for anyone working with plants. The primary purpose of a flora is to allow users to efficiently identify plants in a given region. Floras also provide distribution, habitat, and rarity information about plant species. The Flora of Saskatchewan is also specifically designed to be a learning tool for anyone wanting to learn more about botany and plant morphology in general.
