Abstract:

The purpose of this guide is to help landowners, communities, the U. S. Forest Service, and others decide which plants are most appropriate for restoring riparian and wetland habitats at their site of interest. The guide is focused on the Boise and Payette River basins, but adjacent areas, such as the upper South Fork and Middle Fork of the Salmon River and Johnson Creek, are encompassed. We have included background information to emphasize the importance of riparian and wetland restoration and introduce some of the processes creating these habitats in our watersheds. A list of information resources and potential sources of native plants is included at the end. We hope it reaches the broadest audience and increases the knowledge and desire to restore these important and beautiful habitats for future generations.
