Abstract :
This research was concerned with identifying,
classifying, naming, and providing a botanical
description of the angiosperms present in Saint Louis
School Inc. located on Quirino Highway, Baguio City, to
raise the awareness of students and personnel on
present angiosperms. It is concerned with suggesting
ways how to preserve and conserve the different
flowering plant species present in the school vicinity.
There are 44 plant species identified belonging to 26
families namely Acanthaceae (2), Alstromeriaceae (1),
Amaryllidaceae (3), Apocynaceae (4), Araceae (2),
Asphodelaceae (1), Asteraceae (4), Begoniaceae (2),
Bignoniaceae (2), Bromeliceae (1), Caryophyllaceae (1),
Convolcuceae (1), Crassulaceae (1), Ericaceae (1),
Euphorbiaceae (1), Geraniaceae (2), Lamiaceae (3),
Lythraceae (1), Malvaceae (2), Melastomataceae (1),
Nyctaginaceae (1), Orchidaceae (2), Rosaceae (1),
Rubiaceae (2), Solanaceae (1), and Verbenaceae (1).
Plants belonging to Apocynaceae and Asteraceae have
the highest number of plant species. Only a general way
of conservation of angiosperms was provided. As a
result, a follow-up study on specific ways how to
conserve plants that will cater to their different needs is
highly recommended. Based on the results, Saint Louis
School Inc. is filled with diverse beautiful angiosperms.
It is important to maintain, put effort into conserving
these flowering plants, and have a deeper appreciation
towards them, especially as learners and personnel of
SLSI.
