The marshy wetlands, creek bogs & banks, rocky ledges,
acid meadows, rich bottomland,
field hedges and woodland floors offer diverse habitat for countless species of
plants, a pharmacopoeia of roots and leaves, flowers and bark, the mainstays of
traditional medicine, once providing teas and tinctures, soothing oils and
nourishment. The following lists just a few of the plants who
flourish on Dionondehowa Sanctuary. Some are native, some introduced and some
have migrated here.
