Wild Flowers and Plants of NC
The Way-Too-Long List of Rare, Endangered and Threatened
Vascular Flora of North Carolina

(as of July 1995, updated Feb. 2000)

ABOUT US | CONTACT

A bit of explanation:
The following list contains all of the vascular plants (trees, flowering plants, and non-flowering plants, ferns and lichens) that are listed as endangered or threatened in North Carolina. The list includes plants that are not included on the Federal Endangered and Threatened lists but are included here because the populations in North Carolina are low enough to make them rare in our state. In other words, there may be species on this list that are out of their normal range in North Carolina and found only in one or two locations, and hence are considered threatened in our area.
