Native Prairiegrass Mixture
Native Prairiegrass Mixture is made up of the 5 native warm season grasses that inhabited our area when originally settled by the early pioneers. Canada and Virginia Wildrye, as well as Western Wheatgrass are cool season grasses. This mixture provides an excellent seeding combination for all types of areas. The warm season grasses need warm soil to germinate, therefore, seeding should be done after the first of May.
