DCNP strives to restore the land to native plants -- ones that naturally evolved in
Central Indiana over thousands of years. Please see the park's Native species policy
for more detail.
As volunteers plant natives and remove invasive plant species, we are assembling
lists* of the incredible variety of species found at the park. DCNP is becoming one of
the most botanically diverse pieces of land in the state, and we hope, a model for
other projects. There are already more than 280 plant species on these lists!
Master List of Plants with Latin names
Follow along with our volunteer scientific experts and plant enthusiasts by using
these lists to identify species in the park. Please let us know if you find others to add!
Plant Inventory -- Prairie
Plant Inventory -- Successional / Woods Edge
Plant Inventory -- Wetlands
* Tons of thanks to Greg Gerke of Civil and Environmental Consultants who
volunteered many hours to compile these lists!
