Country plants are the native plants of a particular country. These plants are typical to the region and constitute an important part of the flora of a country. Nowadays, due to the growing preference for exotic plants or plants from different countries, country plants have taken a step back and have become very rare. But country plants are a very important part of the ecological heritage of a country and it is the duty of every citizen to preserve and conserve the myriad species of country plants.
Some of the common flowering country plants are as follows:- Large Buttercups
- Rose Heath
- Yellow Flax
- Wine Cup
- Snow of the Moon
- Texas Thistle
- Bluebonnet
- Giant Spiderwort

There are several beautiful non-flowering country plants too. A few of them are as follows:- Maidenhair Fern
- Alabama Lip Fern
- Bushy Bluestem
The meadows and lakes in the sub-alpine region, the prairies, as well as Central Texas are few of the regions popular for its beautiful and rare country plants. Continuous deforestation, urbanization and increased liking for exotic plants are serious threats to country plants. But conservation of country plants is very important as they are an important part in the ecological chain. Country plants are an important home for moths, butterflies and birds. Country plants also depend on the insects and birds for pollination. So, extinction of country plants would mean extinction of several birds and insects that will loose their home.
Therefore, museums and botanical gardens in different States try their best to conserve country plants. Ironbridge Gorge Museum and Wedgwood Museum render important service in this respect. If you find country plants interesting, then there are more articles on them in Dgreetings.com.
