Description
This mix was designed with wildflower meadows in mind. Chosen for their ability to grow in damp and seepy areas that dry out only in the dry summer weather, these beautiful wet-loving wildflowers can be a great addition to wet parts of a raingarden or a naturally wet area; however, they do not like to be underwater for long periods of time. This mix can grow to about shoulder high and features changing blooms from spring to fall. Perennials, annuals, and biennials. Plant with Companion Grass Mix for wet areas. We recommend at least 25% grasses in a planting. Contains 20+ species of wildflowers. Annuals and biennials will bloom first, with perennials typically expressing themselves by year 3.
