List of flora of the Mojave Desert region

Add links
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This list of flora of the Mojave Desert region includes the flora of the Mojave Desert and of the mountains that are encircled by the Mojave Desert. Some of this flora is well above the level of growth of Yucca brevifolia (Joshua Trees), the upper reaches of which defines the outline of the Mojave Desert. Also included are flora of the Little San Bernardino Mountains dividing the Mojave Desert from the Colorado Desert.

The flora are arranged in several sublists with different organizations for the convenience of encyclopedia users with different purposes - alphabetically by scientific name, alphabetically by plant family then by scientific name, by growth pattern (e.g., tree, shrub, perennial, annual, etc.) then alphabetically by scientific name, by flower color (with duplicate entries when flower colors vary for a single species, and alphabetically by common name.

Each entry in the alphabetical list by scientific name is followed by the common name(s) (in bold and in parentheses), plant family, growth form(s), flower color(s), and brief etymology of the components of the scientific name.
