A complete record of the 2023 PA Botany Symposium can be found in this PDF and it’s also linked on our Archives page.
Pennsylvania Botany is Pennsylvania’s first botanical symposium, established in 2012. It is held every other year and welcomes plant enthusiasts from Pennsylvania and the surrounding region — everyone from professional botanists to hobbyists interested in the science that will advance and protect Pennsylvania native flora. This symposium is developed by people just like you — individuals who love plants and desire a hub for botanical communication in our region.
