Mix 184 - Northern Native Grass and Wildflower Right of Way & Construction Mix
Mix 184 (Northern Native Grass and Wildflower Pipeline, Utility, Roadway & Construction Cover Mix) is designed for the environmental conditions of the Northern Tier States in full sun 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 184 contains 10 native grass and 7 native wildflower species. Rate: 6.20-9.00 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.
