Mini Seed Mix - Medium-Tallgrass Sun/Moist
Seven shortish wildflowers that like full sun and moist conditions! This selection of species is beginner friendly and will support pollinators, Monarch butterflies, songbirds, and hummingbirds. Excellent for seeding a small area, or scattering in the empty spaces in a planting (of similarly sized species) to help it fill in.
These species do not need stratification, so can be spread late winter-early spring! These species are fairly tall, and some spread well by runner or seed. Plant wisely by keeping them away from walkways and shorter plants!
