  • Heart of Uwchlan Pollinator Garden Plant Suggestions – Perennials 2020 Page 1
    Pollinator Garden Plant Suggestions - Perennials Heart of Uwchlan Project Tips for Planting a Pollinator Garden • Assess your location. Is it dry? Often wet? Is soil clay or loamy? How much sun or shade? Select plants appropriate to the conditions: “Right plant in the right place.” • Plant so you have blooms in every season. Don’t forget late summer/autumn bloomers; migrating butterflies need that late season pollen and nectar. • Plant for a variety of flower color and shape. That’s prettier for you, but it also appeals to a variety of pollinators. Some bees and butterflies prefer specific plants. • Plant in groups of at least three . easier for pollinators to find and browse. • Don’t forget the birds. Plant tubular flowers for hummingbirds, bushes with berries for birds (see related Plant List for Shrubs). • Finally, do minimal cleanup in the fall. Leave the leaves, dead stems and flower heads. Beneficial insects like miner bees lay eggs in hollow stems, finches will eat the echinacea seeds. Many butterflies and moths overwinter as pupae in dead leaves. Spring Blooming Golden-ragwort (Packera aurea) – mid to late Spring – Damp location, shade Grows freely and naturalizes into large colonies. Yellow flower heads, blooms for over 3 weeks in mide- to late spring. Dense ground cover. Prefers partial sun, medium shade. Prefers moist, swampy conditions. Cut back bloom stalks after flowering. Golden Alexander (Zizia aurea) – blooms May-June – prefers wet habitats but will tolerate dry Attractive bright yellow flower which occurs from May – June, looks like dill in shape. An excellent addition to a wildflower garden because it provides accessible nectar to many beneficial insects with short mouthparts during the spring and early summer when such flowers are relatively uncommon.

Hazlett, Michael H. Schiebout, and Paulette L. Ford Hazlett, Donald L.; Schiebout, Michael H.; and Ford, Paulette L. 2009. Vascular plants and a brief history of the Kiowa and Rita Blanca National Grasslands. Gen. Tech. Rep. RMRS- GTR-233. Fort Collins, CO: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. 44 p. Abstract Administered by the USDA Forest Service, the Kiowa and Rita Blanca National Grasslands occupy 230,000 acres of public land extending from northeastern New Mexico into the panhandles of Oklahoma and Texas. A mosaic of topographic features including canyons, plateaus, rolling grasslands and outcrops supports a diverse flora. Eight hundred twenty six (826) species of vascular plant species representing 81 plant families are known to occur on or near these public lands. This report includes a history of the area; ethnobotanical information; an introductory overview of the area including its climate, geology, vegetation, habitats, fauna, and ecological history; and a plant survey and information about the rare, poisonous, and exotic species from the area. A vascular plant checklist of 816 vascular plant taxa in the appendix includes scientific and common names, habitat types, and general distribution data for each species. This list is based on extensive plant collections and available herbarium collections. Authors Donald L. Hazlett is an ethnobotanist, Director of New World Plants and People consulting, and a research associate at the Denver Botanic Gardens, Denver, CO.

  • Floristic Quality Assessment Report
    FLORISTIC QUALITY ASSESSMENT IN INDIANA: THE CONCEPT, USE, AND DEVELOPMENT OF COEFFICIENTS OF CONSERVATISM Tulip poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera) the State tree of Indiana June 2004 Final Report for ARN A305-4-53 EPA Wetland Program Development Grant CD975586-01 Prepared by: Paul E. Rothrock, Ph.D. Taylor University Upland, IN 46989-1001 Introduction Since the early nineteenth century the Indiana landscape has undergone a massive transformation (Jackson 1997). In the pre-settlement period, Indiana was an almost unbroken blanket of forests, prairies, and wetlands. Much of the land was cleared, plowed, or drained for lumber, the raising of crops, and a range of urban and industrial activities. Indiana’s native biota is now restricted to relatively small and often isolated tracts across the State. This fragmentation and reduction of the State’s biological diversity has challenged Hoosiers to look carefully at how to monitor further changes within our remnant natural communities and how to effectively conserve and even restore many of these valuable places within our State. To meet this monitoring, conservation, and restoration challenge, one needs to develop a variety of appropriate analytical tools. Ideally these techniques should be simple to learn and apply, give consistent results between different observers, and be repeatable. Floristic Assessment, which includes metrics such as the Floristic Quality Index (FQI) and Mean C values, has gained wide acceptance among environmental scientists and decision-makers, land stewards, and restoration ecologists in Indiana’s neighboring states and regions: Illinois (Taft et al. 1997), Michigan (Herman et al. 1996), Missouri (Ladd 1996), and Wisconsin (Bernthal 2003) as well as northern Ohio (Andreas 1993) and southern Ontario (Oldham et al.
