About Conservation Mix

Use our Conservation Mix for fast establishment in waterways, ditches, banks, hillsides, or other critical sites. A mix of 4 cool season perennial grasses plus 2 quick-germinating annuals is perfect for fast coverage with both bunch grasses and sod-forming grasses. In areas where high water flow is possible, an erosion blanket is recommended as an extra measure to keep seed and soil in place during establishment. Approximately 174,000 seeds/lb (200 seeds/sq ft at 50 lbs/acre).
