Use this interactive tool to select native North Dakota pollinator plants for your pocket prairie. This visual library includes some of the most common tallgrass prairie species that don’t require extra care to thrive in our North Dakota climate. Native plants and pollinators evolved together and a pocket prairie can benefit 150+ species of pollinating butterflies, moths and bees.
