WILDFLOWER LICENSE TAG


You may not know that FFGC was behind the establishment of the Florida State Wildflower license plate. The first plates rolled off in 1999; however, the effort took several years in the making.  Of course, the tag features the Coreopsis, our state wildflower.

$15 from every purchase and renewal of the State Wildflower license tag is donated to the Florida Wildflower Foundation (an affiliate and consistent advertiser in The Florida Gardener).  They use those funds to sponsor education, grants, and research.

  SINCE 1999, PROCEEDS HAVE REACHED $6 MILLION. As FFGC members, you may want to get the tag if you don't have it already. Just buy it at your local DMV which now handles many things online.
