Narrative
Plants of AMFR-251-HZ4 and AMFR-251-HZ5 false indigo are morphologically similar to those found in native prairies in their respective ecoregions and Plant Hardiness Zones in the Midwest states of the USA. The germplasms differ in maturity with the germplasms based on southern collections typically flowering later in the summer. There is also variation within each of the germplasms for maturity, plant height and other traits. Plant breeders can use these germplasms as base populations for cultivar development or companies producing seed of native plants can use them as a seed source of known adaptation. False indigo can be used as a windbreak planting and in conservation plantings where its forage and seed are utilized by wildlife. False indigo can also be used in roadside and ornamental plantings.

Description:
AMFR-251-HZ4 was developed from seed collected from two native tallgrass prairie sites in the South Dakota, one site in Iowa, and one site in Minnesota which are in the 1990 USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 4. AMFR-251-HZ5 was developed from seed collected from three native tallgrass prairie sites in Kansas and three prairies in Missouri which are in the 1990 USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 5. Collections were intermated 1 generation to produce the germplasms.
