Our Limited Height seed mixes for the Midwest, Northeast, and Southeast are good for front yards and appeasing neighbor’s tall plant phobias. This particular mix is made for the Southeast. They can also be applied anywhere you don’t want a meadow that gets over 4 feet tall. They can adapt to full-sun, partial sun, drier soils, moderate moisture soils, and higher moisture soils though they aren’t great for consistently saturated wetland-like soils. These are also great for seeding landscape beds and pollinator gardens due to their limited height and good diversity. This seed mix contains 33 species and is rated at 80 seeds per square foot.

Not all 33 species are pictured but all 33 species are listed below.

What Makes Our Native Seed Mixes Different From Competitors.

The biggest difference in our seed mixes is the amount of native wildflower species being 41 - 46 species in our high diversity seed mixes, and the percentage of Native Wildflower seed vs. Native Grass seed being 95% to 5%. For this amount of wildflower species, and this heavy of native wildflower to native grass percentage; no other native seed company can beat our pricing. The limited height seed mixes that have 33 species also have the same ratio of 95% native wildflower to 5% native grass seed.

As nearly all native seed companies offer; we also provide an instruction manual and customer service question answering via email as you work on transforming your land back into native meadow vegetation. This instruction manual can be followed by yourself or a hired landscaper.

Cost Effectiveness

Native Prairie/Meadow Seedings cost about 2 to 13 cents per square foot where as using potted native plants to cover the same area costs $2.00 to $10.00 per square foot depending on how densely the potted plants are installed and mulch use. For example; a 1,000 Square foot pollinator garden would require at least 750 potted native wildflowers/grasses to cover the plot effectively. Potted Plants can cost $2 to $10 per plant, and at a cost of $5.00 per plant, 750 wildflowers/grasses would cost $3,750 + installation costs and mulching costs. If that 1,000 square feet were instead seeded with one of our mixes it would cost $125 - $150, and you could do the installation yourself simply: using our instruction manual. The cost effectiveness ratio increases even higher the larger of plot you are seeding vs. planting with plugs or potted plants - for 1/8th acre or larger the cost per square foot is only 2 to 3 cents where as the smaller 1,000 and 2,000 square foot portions are around 12 to 13 cents per square foot compared to the $3.75 per square foot cost of potted plants. Maintenance is easier and weed invasion resistance is much better with seeding projects vs. potted plant landscapes due to the density of native seedings repelling and blocking out weed competition as the plot matures.
