Plants of Tumamoc Hill

Tumamoc has more than 300 kinds of native plants. Thanks to the artistry, hard work and generosity of T. Beth Kinsey, you can already see a few of them in this part of the website.

The list below has our perennial species. First we list those with a detailed page of their own. Then we list the others. We are working to give them their own webpage, too. (Check the What's new? — page for notice of additions.) In time, we will do the annuals, too.

Meanwhile, visit Beth's own site Fireflyforest — where you will find other plants of southern Arizona, as well as many from Hawaii. And please do let Beth know how much you appreciate her work!
