***Add 8 Lbs. per acre California Native Wildflower Mix.
Add to any of the above mixes for additional color and diversity.
Mixes for each of California's major floristic provinces are available on request. Often, we suggest additional flowers, forbs and shrubs for greater biodiverstity. (Ask about ecotypes for Coastal, Valley, Foothill and Higher Elevation Mixes.)
Nurse Crops: Add 4-6 Lbs. of Vulpia microstachys or 20 Lbs. of Regreen per acre to any of these regional mixes if erosion control is to be accomplished primarily through the growth of winter germinating plants.
Nitrogen Fixing Plants: Add 2 Lbs. Trifolium wildenovii and/or 3 Lbs. Lupinus bicolor per acre to provide native nitrogen fixing species for additional fertility and diversity.
Nutrition and Growth enhancers: Many sites benefit from 1000 lbs Biosol 7-2-3 organic fertilizer and 60 lbs of AM120 inoculant per acre.
