This Seed List and Cultural Guide is intended to help you identify the general appearance and habitat requirements of native plant species selected for this catalog. Most, if not all, of the species listed can be successfully planted in a garden setting, or a high-quality restoration. The habitats listed for individual species are those for which the species can be found growing in the wild. It is intended as a general guideline to depict how a species is adapted.
Dry prairie species are generally low growing and adapted to poor soil conditions and can better tolerate droughty conditions. Mesic prairie species range from low growing to tall species (some over 6’ tall). They are usually found in soil conditions similar to agricultural crops. Wet prairie species generally are of moderate height and can tolerate periods of soil saturation and inundation. Savanna and woodland species typically are somewhat shade tolerant or are early spring bloomers.
Heights are those encountered in the natural setting and can be typically achieved in a formal garden setting.
Flower colors listed are those generally recognized for that species. Slight color variations may occur in individual plants.
Bloom times approximate when a species will bloom. The length of time a species blooms or when it blooms is dependent on may factors, including soil type and weather conditions.
PLS (Pure Live Seed) grasses are: Andropogon gerardii, Bouteloua curtipendula, Elymus canadense, Panicum virgatum, Schizachyrium scoparium, and Sorghastrum nutans. All other seed is sold in bulk quantities.
With care, native plants can be grown as easily as many non-native perennial cultivars. Native plants should never be dug from the wild, but purchased from a nursery that propagates nursery-grown material.
Threatened or endangered species should be purchased only from a nursery permitted by the state to sell these species.
