As part of its 30th birthday bash, the Georgia Plant Conservation Alliance is sharing success stories on Instagram.
Follow savegaplants for a countdown of 30 projects focused on species varying from granite outcrop specialists such as black-spored quillwort (Isoetes melanospora) to one of Georgia’s few remaining wild stands of royal catchfly (Silene regia).
The Plant Conservation Alliance is a botanical juggernaut-of-a-network including more than 75 public gardens, agencies, schools, companies and conservation organizations committed to preserving endangered flora statewide.
As noted in a 2016 Georgia Wild e-newsletter story, the alliance’s strength is rooted in its members and their willingness to join forces for conservation. “The result: more resources, more collaboration and more effective conservation.”
