[PCA] NEWS: NatiVeg Plant Selection Tool

[Randall, John L]

Interesting – I tested the NatiVeg link for a forb in my Piedmont NC area and it gave me a Helianthus species CULTIVAR introduced from the Western US. I am not impressed.

National Bobwhite Conservation Initiative Releases Online Tool to Aid Native Plant Selection

NatiVeg (www.quailcount.org/NatiVeg<http://www.quailcount.org/NatiVeg>) is a remote, Internet-based tool that works on desktops, laptops, tablets and mobile phones. Developed by NBCI and University of Tennessee Institute of Agriculture Information Technology Service and beta-tested by a variety of outside reviewers, NatiVeg is a database that, within the 25-state  initiative’s range (mid-west and southeast), delivers the proper native plant choices for a specific location and the user’s specific purposes, whether wildlife, forage, biomass, pollinators, critical area planting, restoration or soil conservation.
