The Flora of Namibia seeks to bring together existing and new knowledge gained from the study of our indigenous and naturalised plants, to form an up-to-date knowledge base in order to promote knowledge and sustainable utilisation of this resource. With the Flora of Namibia Project, we are poised and obligated to amass the legacy of our botanists into a modern Flora of Namibia. This will open our natural world to a new generation of botanists and natural historians who can further expand our knowledge and contribute to the conservation of our rich natural heritage.
