According to the United Stated Department of Agriculture (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) database, North Carolina has many recognized species of plants, both cultivated and non-cultivated. A state search of the database returns 13,547 results in the scientific names category.

Among the plants listed for South Carolina are: okra, Indian mallow, velvet leaf, copperleaf; threeseed mercury – slender, pineland, and common; starbur, yarrow, common yarrow, western yarrow; madam gorgon, spotflower, monkshood, sweetflag, calamus, baneberry, maidenhair fern, sandbag death camas, zinnia, wildrice, zizia, and viperina, just to name a few.

To find a specific plant for your state, the plant database provides several search options. On the NRCS home page, the right side navigation pane provides a selection of options, under the “I Want To…” section. If you select the first option, “See a list of the plants in my state” you will be taken to a selection menu where you can select your state. This will then provide you with a list of all the plants in your state that are in the database.

Once you have arrived at the state’s plant list, you will notice that the scientific names are listed alphabetically, preceded by their USDA Call symbols, and followed by the common names. Selecting a clickable scientific name will provide you with a plant profile. This profile provides all the know information about that plant and in some cases may provide a photograph or drawing or the plant.

Alternately, if you know the scientific name or common name of a plant, you may use the search feature to find out more about the plant. This option will provide a list of all the plants by that name that are in the database along with each scientific name and common name, as well as list the number of photographs available for those plants. The best option if you wish to see photographs or drawings of plants in your state is to use the image gallery.

If you wish to know more about the plants in your state, the rest of the country and a few other places around the world, the National Resources Conservation Service website is one of the best place to start.
