In the 2012 President's Budget Request, the National Biological Information Infrastructure (NBII) is terminated. As a result, all resources, databases, tools, and applications within this web site will be removed on January 15, 2012. For more information, please refer to the NBII Program Termination page.
There are numerous organizations and societies that promote and carry out botanical activities. From your local native plant society or gardening club to national government agencies, many groups collect information and plant specimens, carry out research, and promote the conservation and diversity of plants.
Search the list of resources below for an organization in your area or that is focused on the group or type of plants you are interested in.
The NBII Program is administered by the Biological Informatics Program of the U.S. Geological Survey
