Newfoundland Rare Plant Project


In 1999, the "Newfoundland Newfoundland Rare Plant Project" was created by the Provincial Wildlife Division, in an attempt to gain a better understanding the rare plants of the Province, in support the Government's rare plant conservation responsibilities.

The background, history, and achievements of the Project are laid out in a still very useful website (2001), and in two additional documents [here (2004), and here (2008)] .

Much of the work of the Rare Plant Project has been concentrated on the plants of our "limestone" regions.

While the Rare Plant Project is presently more-or-less dormant, the Provincial Wildlife Division continues to do field work investigating the rare plants of the Province.
