Island Plants
The GRYC Islands has a large number of plants and trees. Nancy Ruddell has taken photos of many of these on the islands and have identified most of the them. This gives a snapshot of the island's flora in the month of July, 2007. This project was done with the help of Jane and Keith Horner, Anneke Schwarz, Nicole Casteran and Jean-Pierre Hardy. More photos will be taken in May-June when the spring plants are in bloom.
See description of the flowers and trees.
