UW Extension Bulletin Explains Using Native Plants, Adapted Seed Sources
for Reclamation

July 15, 2014 -- Using native plants and adapted seed sources to help
reclaim severely disturbed lands is the subject of a new bulletin from
University of Wyoming Extension.

Native plants represent key resources for restoration of ecosystem
functions and wildland health, say authors Kristina Hufford, assistant
professor and extension restoration ecologist; and Rachel Mealor, extension
range specialist, both in the Department of Ecosystem Science and
Management.

“Successful Restoration of Severely Disturbed Lands: Native Plants and
Adapted Seeds for Reclamation,” B-1256, offers resources for selecting
native plant species and appropriate seed sources to revegetate degraded
lands in the state and region.

"This bulletin addresses questions we've received during workshops about
the selection of native plant species and the use of different seed sources
in land reclamation and restoration," says Hufford, who also is an
assistant professor with the UW School of Energy Resources.
