Across the United States, there are 498 critically imperiled plant species. Many of these plants will go overlooked in our day to day lives, especially for those who aren't looking. We pass them every day, and as we walk by, they fade further and further into the background. They may be rare and may be easy to disregard, but they are a critical part of the unique environment found throughout the United States. And, while the United States has many types of rare plant, they are not all spread evenly. Learn what plants live near you.
