Best known for its grand vistas and geologic wonders, the Grand Canyon is also home to more plants than any other national park, and nearly half of all the plants that occur in Arizona. Often beautiful, sometimes treacherous, plants achieve the extraordinary feat of transforming sunlight into energy, thus serving as the basis for all animal life on Earth.
This exhibition is an introduction to the fascinating world of canyon plants, the botanists who have studied and protected them, and a celebration of the art of botanical illustration. |
