Info in alt
A keystone species of plant is a plant that has a disproportionately large impact on its ecosystem, meaning that many other species depend on it for survival — far more than you’d expect just from its abundance. If that plant were removed, the entire ecosystem could dramatically change or even collapse. 🌿 Examples • Oak trees: Provide food (acorns), shelter, and habitat for hundreds of insects, birds, and mammals. • Milkweed: The only host plant for monarch butterfly caterpillars and a nectar source for many pollinators. • Prairie grasses (like Big Bluestem): Anchor the soil, prevent erosion, and support pollinators and grazing animals. 🌎 Why They’re Important 1. Biodiversity Support – Keystone plants often feed or shelter dozens (or hundreds) of animal species, keeping ecosystems stable. 2. Habitat Foundation – They shape the physical environment (providing shade, structure, and soil stabilization). 3. Ecosystem Balance – By supporting pollinators, decomposers, and predators, they maintain the natural checks and balances that prevent overgrowth or decline of other species. Keystone plants are the pillars of healthy ecosystems. Collect seeds and sprinkle them on the ground in the fall to let them grow the following year. By: Glass Gardens by Stacey
