Endangered and Threatened Plants of Utah

This poignant poster, titled "Threatened and Endangered Plants of Utah," highlights the delicate state of some of Utah's most vulnerable native flora. Following the success of their "Utah Wildflowers" poster, the Utah Native Plant Society (UNPS) published this impactful print in 1995 to further their mission of increasing public awareness and supporting conservation efforts. Featuring 20 distinct plant species listed as either threatened or endangered under the Endangered Species Act, the poster showcases the beauty and fragility of these at-risk members of Utah's ecosystem through the botanically accurate illustrations of artist and UNPS member, David W. Gardner, complemented by the elegant calligraphy of Pamela Johnson.

Like its predecessor, this high-quality, picture-frame worthy poster serves as both an educational tool and a means of funding crucial conservation work by the UNPS. Its versatility allows it to be displayed in a variety of settings, including classrooms, offices, and homes, making it an effective way to raise awareness about the importance of protecting endangered species. It serves as a powerful reminder of the biodiversity that is at risk and encourages viewers to learn more about and support conservation initiatives. This poster makes a thoughtful and meaningful gift for anyone concerned about the preservation of our natural heritage.

Measuring 24 by 32 inches, this full-color poster meticulously depicts each of the 20 featured threatened and endangered plant species. The detailed illustrations by David W. Gardner ensure botanical accuracy, providing a valuable visual reference for identification and study. By focusing on these vulnerable plants, the "Threatened and Endangered Plants of Utah" poster underscores the urgency of conservation and the vital role the UNPS plays in safeguarding Utah's unique and precious native flora.
