The very first publication of the Arizona Native Plant Society was the Arizona Native Plant Society Newsletter. It functioned as both a source of information on current Society events (today we have our quarterly newsletter "Happenings") and information on plants related to plant biology, horticulture and conservation. In the Spring of 1981, the newsletter changed its name to the Arizona Native Plant Society Bulletin and one issue later was renamed again to the Plant Press, a name submitted by June Hirsch as part of a naming competition among Society members. The Plant Press continued to function as the Society's newsletter but over time began to develop more in-depth content on native plants. Beginning in 2005, the Society began to publish Happenings as a Quarterly Newsletter for all state chapter activities. The Plant Press, now published biannually in themed issues, offers in-depth articles on a topic, such as Rare Plants, and the regular features such as book reviews, committee reports, and spotlights on specific native plants. Listed below are back issues of the Plant Press including the newsletter and Bulletin issues that pre-date the formal name change, starting from the most recent to the oldest issue at the bottom. Each issue includes articles about Arizona’s native flora. Click on the volume number to download a copy. An index of issues and topics from 1977-2006 can be downloaded here. All of the authors comprise an outstanding list of botanists and scientists who have contributed an enormous wealth of information about the flora of Arizona that we are pleased to make available again. |
