Providing native plant diversity to the Willamette Valley ecoregion: no-tech, low-tech, and old-tech seed production methods

Abstract:

Producing seeds of multiple Willamette Valley prairie forb species is challenging for a grower. Many species do not lend themselves to standard commercial seed production methods. This reality has driven us to find creative, efficient ways to produce seeds of some of the more challenging species. By sharing our results, Heritage Seedlings Inc hopes to provide restoration professionals and native seed buyers with information critical to planning projects and selecting materials.
