922: Low Grow Shade Tolerant Upland Mix

The low-growing, shade-tolerant option for wooded sites where a more compact, tidy planting is preferred over a full-height woodland meadow.

Mix Overview

Partridge pea, northern sea oats, lanceleaf tickseed, purple coneflower, Virginia wild-rye, spotted horsemint, hairy beardtongue, hoary and slender mountain mint, orange and black-eyed coneflower, gray goldenrod, and aromatic aster combine into a blend that stays in the one-to-four-foot range while still tolerating shade - equally suited to manicured shaded landscapes or the partial shade found beneath and around solar panel arrays.

Application

• Low-growing pollinator habitat for shaded landscape areas
• Shaded sections of solar field ground cover
• Manicured or formal landscape settings needing shade tolerance and restrained height
• Woodland-edge plantings where a full-height meadow mix would look out of place

Growing Conditions / Specification Data

Planting Guidance

Broadcast or drill seed into a prepared, weed-free seedbed in spring or late fall. Light raking or rolling after seeding improves soil-to-seed contact. Establishment may take longer under heavier shade.

Please allow 3 business days for all seed orders.
