There are over 2800 native flower plant species in Nevada, which is largely situated on the Great Basin, an arid plateau interspersed with many small mountain ranges running north to south. In the low-lying Mojave Desert, plants like yucca, mesquite, and cacti are abundant. For many people, plants represent a major aspect of a landscape's character, yet it can be challenging to sift through thousands of species.
