Our Shortgrass Prairie mixes are ideal for natural landscaping projects. The shorter stature grasses provide groundcover and support the wildflowers without overshadowing them. Enjoy a panoramic landscape of over two dozen wildflowers in each mix. Great for educational plantings, too!
A very popular mix containing many Asters and Coneflowers. Lots of summer and fall colors! Mesic soils are most common and considered medium in moisture (drains well yet retains some water).
