MNL Upland Dry Prairie Mix

From: $40.00

A classic native prairie seed mix, designed for dry and well drained soils–Available in different height mixes!

Designed for dry, well-drained sites or sandy soils.  We have designed a short grass and mixed height option, please note both options in the drop down menu and check out the mix composition in the PDF’s below. Our shortgrass option reaches a height of 2-3 feet, the mixed height grass option will range from 2-5 feet.

Seed mixes in our 500, 1,000, 5,000, and 1/4 acre package sizes come with native grasses, wildflowers, cover crop, and a filler (for easier spreading) all pre-mixed. Orders in 1/2 acre or 1 acre+ sizes come with grasses, wildflowers, and cover crop bagged separately for drill seeding or broadcast seeding.

Species of cover crop seed will depend on the time of year the product is ordered – if you order ahead and have a delayed planting time in mind, please indicate planting season (spring, summer, fall, or winter) in a note at check out.
