THE REDBUD CHAPTER OF NEVADA AND PLACER COUNTIES
Placer and Nevada Counties are located on the western slope of the Sierra Nevada mountain range between Sacramento and Lake Tahoe. Although these two counties represent only 1.5% of the land mass of California, 35% of its vascular plants are found here. Our native plants grace the landscape in habitats from the Sacramento valley grasslands, through the foothills, and into the high peaks of the Sierra Nevada mountain range. This land area represents a large variation in elevation, rainfall, and temperature. The snowmelt from the rugged peaks feeds into the Yuba, American, Rubicon and Bear Rivers with water to support the more populous areas of the state.
For a limited time, CNPS is offering a special incentive to new members!
Join online at the $45.00 member or higher levels and we will send you one of three of our beautiful wildflower posters: Wildflowers of the Desert, Wildflowers of the Coast, or Wildflowers of the Redwood Forest.
