This flora list represents 102 of the more common
plants found in Theodore Roosevelt National Park. Over 400 plants
have been located and identified within the park and it is estimated
that perhaps as many as 500 different species exist. Please respect
other park visitors as well as wildlife when viewing wildflowers.
Picking or collecting plants is prohibited.
Plants listed can be found in one or all three units
of the park. Common names shown are those used in this region. Scientific
names follow the convention used in Flora of the Great Plains
published in 1986 by University Press of Kansas unless later accepted
changes have been made. Flowering date represents the best period
of time to see the plant in bloom under normal conditions. Dates
could be altered by weather. Space permits listing only primary
habitat.
