North American Plant Collections Consortium

According to the consortium's web site, it has three strategic goals:

Increase the number of NAPCC Collections to represent the major Genera of ornamental plants found in APGA member gardens;

Facilitate coordination of NAPCC plant collections; and

Raise professional plant curation standards in public gardens.

The consortium is intended to represent woody and herbaceous ornamentals, both native and exotic. The main objective for each consortium member is to assemble the most comprehensive possible group of plants within a particular Taxon , collecting plants that are both Taxonomically and Genetically from different populations throughout the natural range of the plants. As of March 2006, consortium members and their collections included:
