Description

The New England Showy Wildflower mix includes a selection of native wildflowers and grasses that will mature into a colorful and vibrant native meadow. It is appropriate seed mix for roadsides, commercial landscaping, parks, golf courses, and industrial sites. Always apply on clean bare soil. The mix may be applied by mechanical spreader, or on small sites it can be spread by hand. Lightly rake, or roll to ensure proper seed to soil contact. Best results are obtained with a Spring or late Fall dormant seeding. Late Spring and early Summer seeding will benefit with a light mulching of weed free straw to conserve moisture. If conditions are drier than usual, watering may be required. Late Fall and Winter dormant seeding require an increase in the seeding rate. Fertilization is not required unless the soils are particularly infertile. Preparation of a clean weed free seed bed is necessary for optimal results.
