How this list is made
Derived from each plant's native-range record, checked against Kew's World Checklist of Vascular Plants and USDA PLANTS with every decision on a ledger; Northwest Territories is read off the record's own range, and the order is how many of the record's areas each plant reaches, then by name, as stored in the BloomsEye library, which was written with AI assistance. Of these 30 plants, 29 have been checked against outside sources; the rest has not been checked yet, and each plant's own page says which. The cards are AI-generated illustrations.
