Conservation Plant Releases

This online listing includes the 580+ active conservation plants released by the NRCS Plant Materials Program and our cooperators that are recommended for natural resource conservation and restoration activities.

To use this list, we suggest you choose Show “all” entries. Use your keyboard arrows to scroll to the right for the remaining columns. The table can be sorted ascending or descending by clicking any of the column headings. Use the search function to find desired text throughout the table, such as to find a plant name, or filter the list by release type, plant type, uses, or PMC code. See the tips page for search options.

Links within the table will take you to species profile page in the PLANTS database, to download the brochure for the release, and to the primary Plant Materials Center responsible for the conservation plant release.
