[PCA] Wildflower research literature library expands to 289 species

[Lisa Roberts]

The Florida Wildflower Foundation, which last year launched a research
literature library of Florida native wildflower references, recently
enriched the database. It now holds information on 289 species and more than
1,800 articles. 

 

The Wildflower Literature Survey
<http://www.flawildflowers.org/Literature.php>  project was established in
2010 to provide a free searchable database of native wildflower research.
Dr. Anne Frances, Washington, D.C., spent 2 1/2 years searching for the most
relevant citations for increasing and protecting Florida's native
wildflowers. 

 

The easy-to-use database lets researchers, citizen scientists and native
plant growers search for peer-reviewed titles and abstracts by authorship,
keywords or topics. Click here <http://flawildflowers.org/plantlist.php>
for a list of included species, many of which also grow in the Southeastern
U.S. 

 

In 2014, literature on 10 species of invasive plants to add to the
collection. Suggestions for additions to the database may be emailed to
Research at FlaWildflowers.org.
