| Rotary Prairie |
| Location | Site Description |
| Along the North East corner of Regent Ave W | This prairie is 20.5 acres of "wet" tall grass prairie. |
| and Bradley St in Transcona Industrial Park. | Unique plant species to this site include gentians, |
| | mountain sneezeweed, whorled milkweed, scratch grass |
| Site Name | Site # | and sweet grass. In July 1995 some Western prairie |
| Rotary Prairie | 541 | fringed orchids were rescued from a road construction |
| | site near Tolstoi, Manitoba and were transplanted into |
| | this site. These plants flowered in June of 1996 and |
| | seem to be growing well at their new location. There is |
| | a trail to allow people to walk around this site. |
| | Interpretive information will be available for the area in |
| | future. This native prairie area has been adopted by the |
| | Transcona Rotary Club. |
