National Plant Data Team

The National Plant Data Team is a collaborative group of experts that collects, manages, and shares detailed information about plants across the United States. Their goal is to provide accurate, up-to-date data on plant species’ distribution, characteristics, and conservation status. This information supports scientists, conservationists, policymakers, and the public in making informed decisions about plant health, biodiversity, and protecting natural ecosystems. Essentially, they serve as a central resource for plant-related data, helping to improve understanding and care for our nation's plant diversity.
