Bridger Plant Materials Center
Bridger, Montana
Established 1959
Since 1959, the Bridger Plant Materials Center has provided plant solutions
for the diverse ecosystems of Montana and Wyoming. The Center has released a
number of conservation plants including ‘Rimrock’ indian ricegrass, ‘Critana’
thickspike wheatgrass, ‘Bridger-select’ Rocky Mountain juniper, ‘Trailhead’
basin wildrye and Old Works Germplasm fuzzytongue penstemon. The Center has
developed new plant solutions for extending livestock grazing periods; low-water
landscaping; restoring woody plants to native range; propagating threatened
species and culturally significant plants; and reclaiming disturbed areas from
mining, wildfire and road construction.
