4/19 Plant Rescue - NW Austin 360/Cedar Street

More rescue due to delayed clearing on 14 wooded, sloped acres. Feel welcome to bring empty mulch/soil bags or 5-gallon buckets to fill with rich soil before they scrape it when clearing. Some rescued plants will be donated to Travis County Parks, Vireo Preserve, JJ&T Preserve, and a variety of local pollinator gardens for habitat restoration. Uncommon natives and small herbaceous perennials are the priority:

Acourtia runcinata - featherleaf desertpeony  
Chamaesaracha edwardsiana - Edwards plateau five eyes   
Solidago radula - rough goldenrod
Galphimia angustifolia - narrowleaf goldshower 
Ipomoea lindheimeri - Lindheimer's morning glory
Lithospermum incisum - fringed puccoon
Pinaropappus roseus - pink dandelion
Senna roemeriana - twoleaf senna 🐝
Schoenocaulon texanum - Texas feathershank
Clematis texensis - scarlet leather flower
Verbesina lindheimeri - Lindheimer's crownbeard 🐝

With the warm weather, keep a lookout for Texas bluestar and Texas plains breadroot (scurfpea)

Propagators: need volunteers to attempt rooting cuttings of Mexican silktassel & bluewood condalia (donate 75% of successes in fall)

Donation plants must be potted up on site (all roots covered, full pot of soil). For your own plants, bring plastic grocery bags, a bucket, or a wagon to move your rescues. Bring water to keep your plants from drying out. Wear gloves and bring your own tools and pots if you have them; however, we do have some tools and gloves to borrow as well as some small 4" and 1-gallon pots. Recommended to bring whatever you personally need to stay comfortable while working outdoors: water, kneeling pad, etc. :)

To respect the privacy and safety of our partners, the specific address and location of the rescue will only be sent out once registered participants complete the Central Texas Plant Rescuers' Liability Waiver and Participant Agreement (linked under Requirement Details)
