Welcome to the on-line version of this exciting new travelling exhibit about Canada's native plants, produced jointly by Royal Botanical Gardens and the Canadian Museum of Nature.

Native plants play a dynamic role in defining Canadian landscapes and our sense of place. This exhibition explores the beauty, diversity and vulnerability of Canada's native plants. Find out why plants are important, what threatens them, who works to protect them, and how you can help. This family-oriented, bilingual exhibit will change the way you see our plant heritage!

Green Legacy opened at the Canadian Museum of Nature in Ottawa on May 9, 2002. It will begin its cross-country tour in the autumn of 2002.
