Plants Observed at Cumberland Mountain Farm
25-30 June 2005 and 8-9 May 2006
Observations made by Charles R. Smith, Cornell University
115 species are listed here
Note: Because there is no single reference for standard English and scientific names of plants,
English and scientific names for wildflowers follow Wildflowers of Tennessee (2001), by Jack B. Carman.
English and scientific names of ferns and woody plants follow those listed from Cumberland County
by the University of Tennessee Herbarium on its web site at http://tenn.bio.utk.edu/index.html
