Mixtures Advice

You can seed this mixture with Indiangrass and Big Blue Stem, however, some of the flowers will ost likely not make it. I would recommend mixing the Stocks Wildflower Mix with our mid-height grasses found in the Prairie 3 Plus Mix . 

If you are going to do a fall seeding, wait until after the first freeze to do the seeding. However, I would wait until spring for the best results. 

Planting this mixture between taylor junipers is typically fine. Keep in mind that the mixture enjoys 8+ hours of sun per day!

That will depend on the tree. For most deciduous trees, the mixture has the potential to still grow well as long as there is at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day. Certain deciduous trees, such as maple, have root systems close to the surface and can rob the grass of needed water. For taller evergreens the mixture can perform well as long as the branches are trimmed somewhat high. 

The Tradition Fine Fescue or Shady Grass Mix would work better if the area gets less than 6 hours of sunlight.

Keep in mind shade means extra watering requirments during establishment and irrigation may become necessary if precepitation is not available!

The seeding rate may differ for each mixture. You can find the seeding rate listed under "Product Details" on the product page.

Seeding rates can be cut back for more economical plantings, but a reduced rate may result in thin stands that have trouble competing with weeds or require reseeding. We strongly advise you use no less than one-half of the recomended for adequate stand.

When figuring seed requirements, remember that broadcasting requires more seed than drilling to achieve comparable results.
