RIPARIAN BUFFER MIX
Description
It has been proven that waterways with a strip of protective vegetation alongside them have increased water quality and numerous ecological benefits. This seed mix is a diverse mix of native forbs and grasses that will aid in the stabilization of stream banks as well as decrease erosion challenges. Creating a riparian buffer also helps lessen the occurrence and strength of flooding and inhibits sedimentation of waterways while simultaneously supporting a wide variety of pollinators and wildlife. Great for sites with slopes, shaded edges, boggy areas, and occasional running water.
Recommended Seeding Rate: 15 lbs. per acre
