We welcome everyone, from professional botanists and horticulturists to amateurs. If you’re new to Colorado or just learning about our wonderful flora, don’t be intimidated by sometimes complex terminology. CoNPS offers opportunities to learn about botany and plant identification. Our goal is to appeal to everyone through various learning opportunities at meetings as well as through classroom workshops and seasonal field trips geared to various levels of expertise.
Although Colorado has approximately 3000 different species of native and alien plants belonging to over 150 families – before you start feeling overwhelmed, concentrate on learning the major families since 75% of taxa (plant species) fall into major families. Everyone knows the sunflower family (Asteraceae) for instance, so build on what you know and HAVE FUN!
