MMF Pollinator Mix

This seed mix is designed to attract pollinators. These species were selected to provide blooms throughout the growing season (April through October). Out of all our offered seed mixes, this one has the highest percent of showy flowering plants. It also includes some native grasses. It is appropriate for sites that are full or part sun, with moist to dry soils. The species in this mix range from three to six feet tall. We recommend 20-25 pounds per acre, and we sell it by the pound.
