Datasheets

The plants are classified according to their preferred habitats - coastal, humid, plains & cultivated areas (PCA), garrigues, maquis & forests, deserts, or highlands. A particular plant may be listed in more than one category.

I've tried to concentrate on plants that are more or less exclusive to the Mediterranean climate and, generally, those that have been described by "local" authors.
