These lists are an attempt to define what plant community(ies) exist for every town in California. Although we've traversed most of California, it seems humanly impossible to track every road and village in one lifetime. Works like Munz's California Flora, McMinn's Shrubs of California, Abram's Illustrated Flora of the Pacific States, or the original Jepson Manual (Manual of the Flowering Plants of California, by Willis Linn Jepson) continually amaze me with how few hillsides they missed. We acknowledge that this list has some errors, but if you have no clue what plant community is supposed to be on your site because all you can see is a row of houses or weeds in a field, this is at least a starting point.

Help put California back together, one landscape, one block, one town at a time.

California cities that start with A, zipcode and plant community.

City ZipCode with the associated Plant Community description, what plants used to be there and what plants can be there. You should be able to figure out which community one you are in. (Some cities have more than one plant community.)
