[peter at conservationblueprint.com]

Learn how plant species that are highly valued for use in pollinator habitat
and prairie restoration projects is collected.  This habitat tip shows how
Porcupine Grass (Stipa spartea) seed is hand-harvested.  This hard-to-find
native, cool-season grass seed is a great addition to seed mixtures, but
very hard to find in a form that is just the actual seed so that it can be
planted using a grass drill or other planting equipment.
