This category contains the native flora of Florida as defined by the World Geographical Scheme for Recording Plant Distributions. Taxa of the lowest rank are always included; taxa of higher ranks (e.g. genus) are only included if monotypic or endemic. Include taxa here that are endemic or have restricted distributions (e.g. only a few countries).
Map of wood-filled areas in the United States, circa 2000 [1]. In the United States, the forest cover by state and territory is estimated from tree-attributes using the basic statistics reported by the Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) program of the Forest Service. [2]
In the Florida Peninsula the amount of evergreens increases and species richness decreases as northern deciduous species (American Beech, White Oak) reach their southern limits. Upland Hardwood Forest in Central Florida , at the southern end of its range (especially along the Brooksville Ridge), is often hard to differentiate from Mesic Hammock .
Upland hardwood forests typically host diverse trees and shrubs, with no dominant species. Many Florida state parks encompass upland hardwood forests. [14] Bottomland hardwoods: They consist of shallow, wet areas near lakes, rivers, and sinkholes, which makes them prone to flooding. Consists of primarily deciduous trees that grow in layers with ...

These plants are safe in Roger’s fenced-in yard, but for the dozens of native orchids scattered across Florida in odd places, from swamp to suburb, reality is much more grim. ‘They’re Being ...
Thus in the GRIN Taxonomy for Plants database, the distribution of Magnolia grandiflora is given in terms of WGSRPD botanical continents and regions as: [29] "Northern America Southeastern U.S.A. South-Central U.S.A." Below the Level 2 regions, the Level 3 areas in this case are US states, which are then listed.
Parkinsonia florida grows to heights of 10–12 metres (33–39 ft). It is a rapidly growing large shrub or small tree, and rarely survives to 100 years.Compared to the closely related Parkinsonia microphylla (foothill paloverde), it appears more decumbent in overall form, is taller, and matures more quickly.
