Grass seed mixes should be seeded out at a rate of 1 lb. per 250 square feet. For best results seed grasses in early spring or in late summer. The grasses in the Prairie Meadow Mix will grow well with sun loving native perennial wildflowers like Brown Eyed Susan, Blue Flax and Wild Bergamot to produce an aesthetically pleasing naturalized prairie meadow. Check out our Growing Tips section for information and tips about planting a naturalized wildflower meadow. |
