Montague Mix 1 - City Park Mix
The City Park Mix is designed for highly visible public spaces such as parks, campuses, and urban environments. It combines dependable native grasses with a diverse array of flowering plants that delight the public with blooms from spring through fall. Species were selected not only for their adaptability across urban landscapes, but also for their resilience to poor soils and the stresses of city life. Beyond durability, the charismatic City Park Mix softens the built environment, provides habitat for pollinators and songbirds, and invites people to appreciate urban nature.
Recommended planting rate of the City Park Mix is 10.28 PLS lbs./acre. For smaller areas, 1 PLS pound of this mix can cover up to 3,000 square feet.
We recommend including a nurse crop for this mix. For fall through spring, we recommend 20 to 32 pounds of oats per acre. For summer, we recommend 3-4 pounds of brown top millet per acre.
