Collection: Sonora's Native Plants and Animals

Sonora’s deserts, mountains, and coastal flats are home to hardy plant communities. Native shrubs, desert succulents, and seasonal wildflowers thrive in the arid lowlands, while upland forests provide cooler habitats. Pollinators, small mammals, and migratory birds move between these zones throughout the year. Seasonal rains bring brief but brilliant blooms to the desert.
