TITLE: Plant germination protocol records
DATES: 1990-
ARRANGEMENT: Alphabetical by species name

DESCRIPTION: The Division of Forestry, Fire and State Lands operates the Lone Peak Conservation Center (LPCC) in Draper. LPCC grows a variety of trees, shrubs, grass and wetland plants for conservation purposes and makes the plants available to customers. Successful germination of seed at production levels is critical to nursery operations. To successfully germinate seed LPCC follows published protocol for commercially propagated plant species. Where existing literature is insufficient, LPCC develops its own germination protocol, which is written up in the form of a technical paper. LPCC has developed stratification schedules and protocol for seed and vegetative propagation of tall forb communities, Wyoming sagebrush, select native grasses, and specific wetland emergents.
