Hello, Does anyone have information on nurseries that will take collected seeds and propagate them? I work for the US Forest Service in Washington state, and we are hoping to multiply seed of native plants in our area for revegetation of degraded areas. We are currently paying high prices to a USDA nursery in California for these services, and are hoping to find a private outfit that will be more competitive. My apologies if this posting falls outside of the guidelines for this list. I am a new subscriber, and am as yet unfamiliar with the etiquette of the list. Thanks, Brad McRae Brad, You might try contacting the Washington Native Plant Society Web site: http://www.wnps.org/ email: WNPS@BLARG.NET or: Oregon Native Plant Society Web site: http://www.teleport.com/nonprofit/npso/ This site has an abundance of nuseries listed that propagate native plants: PNW Native Plant Sources http://chemwww.chem.washington.edu/natives/nurseries.html and if you want to ask on the PNW Native Plants email discussion list you can subscribe here: http://chemwww.chem.washington.edu/natives/pnw-natives-archives/ Good luck! ###################################### Debra Teachout-Teashon Pacific Northwest Gardening Clematis -- Vertical Structure For The Northwest Garden http://www.suite101.com/topics/page.cfm/416 #######################################
