Growing native plants can be fun, challenging, and rewarding. This
publication, particularly the first chapter that introduces
important concepts, is for the novice who wants to start growing
native plants as a hobby; however, it can also be helpful to
someone with a bit more experience who is wondering about starting
a nursery. The second chapter provides basic information about
collecting, processing, storing, and treating seeds. Chapter three
focuses on using seeds to grow plants in the field or in containers
using simple but effective techniques. For those native plants that
reproduce poorly from seeds, the fourth chapter describes how to
start native plants from cuttings. The final chapter provides
valuable information on how to successfully move native plants from
the nursery and establish them in their final planting location.
Several appendices expand on what has been presented in the
chapters, with more details and specific information about growing
a variety of native plants.
