Revegetation References
"Guidelines for Planning Riparian Restoration in the Southwest"
This restoration guide addresses concerns that must be considered when developing riparian restoration projects as well as a number of
responses or solutions to these potential problems.

"Guidelines for Planting Longstem Transplants for Riparian Restoration in the Southwest: Deep Planting"
This site describes a good possible technique if you are revegetating a riparian site that lacks overbank flooding and has a deep water table.
http://www.nm.nrcs.usda.gov/news/publications/deep-planting.pdf
"The Pole Cutting Solution"
Guidelines for planting dormant pole cuttings in riparian areas of the Southwest. Planting dormant pole cuttings has proven to be a successful
technique for establishing many riparian tree and shrub species.

"Plant Technology Fact Sheet: Tall-Pots"
This fact sheet describes the use of tall-pots to establish plants in areas lacking sufficient soil moisture or irrigation availability to revegetate
using more traditional means. A discussion of the structure, usefulness, benefits, and limitations of the tall-pot revegetation method is included.
