Mix 199 - Steep Slope Stabilization Native Mix
Mix 199 (Steep Slope Stabilization Native Mix) is designed for the environmental conditions of the all Regions. Flowering period and flower colors are coordinated for full season variety. 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 199 contains 9 native grass species and 11 native wildflower species. Rate: 7.38-10.70 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.
