NON-STRUCTURAL BMPS
The most effective way to manage stormwater begins with the prevention of problems. Non-structural BMPs include design approaches and practices that are used for their ability to prevent the occurrence of stormwater runoff. Utilizing non-structural BMPs during site development is much more efficient and cost-effective than attempting to correct problems after development has occurred.

Plant Zone Map - USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map - 2012

Description: The latest version of the USDA Zone Map was jointly developed by USDA's Agricultural Research Service (ARS) and Oregon State University's (OSU) PRISM Climate Group, and released in January of 2012.

Note: The Zone is listed in the 2nd column in the Legend to the right.

Also, as of December 1, 2020 the official site https://planthardiness.ars.usda.gov/PHZMWeb/ had an expired security certificate so this was not listed.

Rain Garden - Plants - Pennsylvania

Description: This plant list provides a good starting point to help you become familiar with some native plants that are good for rain gardens. Most of the plants listed below are native specifically to the Mid-Atlantic region, although there are some that are native more to the mid-western region of the United States. This list is not a comprehensive planting guide, as the exact plants for each rain garden will vary depending on how much water the garden will hold, the exposure (sun or shade) and the soil conditions.
