The Florida Plant Conservation Program originated in 1992 to work toward
the recovery of federally-listed endangered and threatened plant species
in Florida. As of October, 1998, Florida had 55 plant taxa listed under
the U. S. Endangered Species Act as Endangered (44) or Threatened (11).
The Program is funded through grants from the U. S. Department of
Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service under Section 6 of the U. S.
Endangered Species Act. These grants are given as 75:25 matching funds.
Each project is responsible for acquiring the project's match (25%) for
the federal funds (75%). The goal of the Florida Plant Conservation
Program is to restore and maintain existing populations of listed plants
on public land and on private lands managed for conservation purposes.
Previous or ongoing projects address demography, monitoring,
reintroduction, germination, pollination, and other aspects of
population ecology. The proposal format is included for anyone
interested in submitting a proposal. Comments to the Florida Division
of Forestry's Plant Conservation Program can be sent to: Dr. Dennis
