Mix 186 - Northern Native Grass and Wildflower Right of Way and Construction Mix
Mix 186 (Northern Native Grass and Wildflower Pipeline, Utility, Roadway and Construction Mix) is designed for the environmental conditions of the Northern Tier States in partial shade sites. The amount of seed of each species in the mix has been calculated using the number of seeds per pound of each species factored by establishment parameters. Mix 186 contains 10 native grass and 8 native wildflower species. Rate: 4.90-7.10 PLS pounds/acre. We recommend including a nurse crop for this mix. For fall through spring, we recommend 20 to 32 pounds of oats per acre or 2 to 4 pounds of annual rye per acre. For summer, we recommend 6 to 8 pounds of brown top millet per acre.
