Forb and Fern species (cont'd) <br />Potentilla gracilis var. gracilis <br />Prunella vulgaris ssp. lanceolata <br />Ranunculus occidentalis <br />Sidalcea campestris <br />Sidalcea malv flora var. virgata <br />Solidago canadensis <br />Symphyotrichum subspicatum <br />Tellima grandiflora <br />Thalictrum polycarpum <br />Thalictrum occidentalis <br />Trillium albidum <br />Triteleia hyacinthina <br />Viola glabella <br />Grass and sedge species could include: <br />Bromus sitchensis <br />Carex leptopoda <br />Elymus glaucus <br />Festuca californica <br />Pollinator Prairies: The elevation of these areas varies between 414' and 434' and occupies <br />approximately one acre of the site. This zone, which is devoted to providing the habitat needs of <br />native pollinators, can also be surrounded by groups of native small trees and shrubs that further <br />serve the habitat needs of the native pollinators as well as local and migrating song birds. This <br />would be an ideal spot for placement of educational signs concerning the needs of native <br />pollinators and songbirds, perhaps encouraging people to plant similar areas in their own yards <br />throughout Eugene. There are excellent local organizations including the Native Plant Society of <br />Oregon Emerald Chapter, the Audubon Society, and the Xerces Society that could potentially <br />help with content and wording of signs. <br />These organizations might also be of assistance for informing the project with the pollinator <br />species- specific detail needed to best choose appropriate plant species to serve the nectar, larval <br />host and overwintering needs of targeted species. Information on plant species that may provide <br />general habitat needs for pollinators and songbirds is provided in Appendix A but it is not <br />possible within the framework of this report to provide a high level of detail on which plant <br />species best serve all aspects of each pollinator's or bird's habitat needs. Indeed, such knowledge <br />continues to grow and should be updated frequently, even after project implementation. At <br />present, using the best available information and overall planting a diverse mix of native species <br />known to provide for the habitat needs of local pollinators will be the best that can be achieved <br />within the framework of current knowledge, and will be a major step in the right direction. <br />Shrub and small tree species could include: <br />Amelanchier alnifolia <br />Berberis aquifolium <br />Corylus cornuta var. californica <br />Holodiscus discolor <br />Oemleria cerasiformis <br />Philadelphus lewisii <br />Prunus emarginata var. mollis <br />Prunus virginiana var. demissa <br />Rhamnus purshiana <br />Ribes sanguineum <br />Symphoricarpos albus var. laevigatus <br />Forb species could include: <br />Achillea millefolium <br />Anaphalis margaritacea <br />Aquilegia formosa <br />Asclepias speciosa <br />Brodiaea coronaria ssp. coronaria <br />Clarkia amoena <br />Clarkia purpurea var purpurea <br />Collinsia grandiflora <br />Collomia grandiflora <br />Delphinium menziesii <br />Epilobium ciliatum var. glandulosum <br />Epilobium densiflorum <br />Eriophyllum lanatum <br />Erysimum capitatum var. capitatum <br />Eschscholziaolltzia californica <br />Fragaria virginiana var. platypetela <br />Geranium oreganum <br />Gilia capitata <br />Iris tenax <br />Lomatium dissectum <br />Lomatium nudicaule <br />Lomatium utriculatum <br />Lupinus bicolor <br />Lupinus polyphyllus <br />Mertensia platyphylla <br />22 <br />
