Stat tt e L o a c k S e P l an st t Checkli Lake Scott State Park, with its large natural springs and protected basin, has long been recognized for the unique characteristics of its flora. Because of the variety of habi- tats present within the park, the diversity of plant species is said to be greater than any other area in the western half of Kansas. This checklist is meant to aid in the enjoyment and appreciation of plants that might be found while visiting Scott State Lake. This checklist does not replace a field guide or other identification reference. There are many good wildflower guides available, with pho- tographs or drawings and plant descriptions. In order to learn to recognize the plants and to learn more about them, it is advisable to purchase a guide for your individual level of interest and experience. Included in this list are native flora and introduced species that have naturalized. Non- native plants are designated by an asterisk (*). This brochure contains a wide diversi- ty of plants. However, this is by no means a complete list of the plants at Scott State Lake. The symbols used are: OCCURRENCE: C = common U = uncommon R = rare OCCURRENCE, particularly of annuals and in relation to the flowering of perennials, can vary greatly from year to year depending on fluctuations in rainfall, temperature, and stress factors that influence growth. HABITAT: M = moist ground or in standing water W = woodland or shady, sheltered areas P = prairie, open with full sun D = disturbed areas, such as roadsides U = bryophyte (mosses and liverworts) and lichen habitats R = found growing on rocks S = grows on soil B = grows on tree bark Some plants are found in more than one habitat, but they are listed by only the habitat in which they are most likely to be found. SEASON = the range of flowering dates, by months, that a particular plant may be found blooming. If you have information to add to this list, please report it to the park office. Do not disturb any of the plants in the park. They are protected for everyone to enjoy.
