A citizen science project for people interested in plants.
100 years ago, botanists Josias Braun-Blanquet and Eduard Rübel comprehensively documented the flora of Graubünden for the first time. Now it’s time for an update.
Together with experts and volunteers, we collect observations, secure historical knowledge and create a basis for species promotion and research.
Everyone is welcome — from beginners to professionals. Every observation counts.
Here you will find everything you need for mapping — apps, instructions, maps and identification tools.
Discover the plant diversity of Graubünden and help to preserve it for the future.
