Any lists/ sites for flora for native New Jersey woodland?

18 years ago

Hi are there any sites or resources on lists of plants that are native to various types of northeastern/midatlantic and primarily New Jersey woodlands? I have a patch of woodland that is overgrown (with many woodland "weeds") and would like to "restore" it to its native value.... with all sorts (shrubs, perennials) of plants that would occur naturally and also help aid wildlife (mammals and insects like butterflies included) P.S. all I've found is pinebarrens but I'm not in the pine barrens so those (sites) aren'thelpful..... I'm on the coast. Thanks :)

The list at the link below has a link titled "Plants for Woodlands" about 3/4 of the way down the page. Some of the other links also sound like they might be helpful.

Here is a link that might be useful: New Jersey Native Plant Links

I am in the same boat. Live in the same area and I have a wooded area that I am trying to tackle. I have found a few plants that are doing well in the shade and sansy soil, Christmas fern, Rose of Sharon, which you find everywhere here, and lily of the vally, another plant that seems to be in the yard of older homes. Thank you for the above link Norhteast I will be using it. OH by the way a garden center in Waterford Nj has some of the natural plants for this area, it is Popes Gardens, I am not sure where you live but a great variety not expensive either.
