ROADSIDE MIX
Description
A hardy and versatile assortment of perennial wildflowers and grasses that are perfect for roadside areas and woodland borders. Planting natives along highways helps to slow down, absorb, and clean water that runs off roadways, resulting in reduced soil erosion, flood control and cleaner water supplies. These plantings also function as living snow barriers, catching snow instead of allowing it to drift across driving lanes. Provides pollinator and wildlife habitat, and a low maintenance alternative to the upkeep of roadside areas.
Recommended Seeding Rate: 15 lbs. per acre
