An initial
list was compiled by Albert Dugal during a one-day visit in 1977.
Additional observations were made by other naturalists in the 1980's
and 1990's. This has resulted in an impressive but preliminary
list of plants. Twenty-eight significant native plant species occur
here. Significant species are those regarded as regionally or
provincially rare or sparse. These species are shown in
boldface.
