August Wild Flower Records
Hamilton, Ontario, Canada
Updated to August 31, 2007
I am updating Latin names from "FLORA Ontario – Integrated Botanical Information System" as I find errors in my older records.
These are records of 352 species seen in bloom in August during the last 9 years in the Hamilton Area.
There have been 52 new species for August found blooming since 2004.
* = Plant is not native to our area.
