PlantWatch

PlantWatch is a Canadian project hosted by the Canadian Nature Federation and Environment Canada's Ecological Monitoring and Assessment Network Coordinating Office.

PlantWatch is a phenology project where participants monitor flowering plants and report when they flower (phenology). Data is added instantly to web maps showing bloom times across Canada. Some plants are blooming almost a month earlier than they did a century ago, which may indicate global warming or other climatic changes.
