Included Species: Carex pansa (Dune Sedge), carex praceagalis (Meadow Sedge), Boutlouea gracilis (Blue Gramma Buffalo Grass), Festuca californica, Achillea millefolium, California Poppy or Blue-Eyed Grass (Jan-June only / Blue-eyed grass June-Dec)
Native to dunes, meadows and wildflower fields up and down California. Buffalo grass, Sedge lawns and yarrow meadows are often used individually as monoculture-style lawns. For a more diverse native micro-meadow option that's we've chosen to blend them together. And yes they like a once-a-season mow.
These low-growing meadow grasses and wildflowers are only available in 4" pots. Plugs & small pots are best for smaller lawn areas or slopes. Space grasses and yarrow at 8-12" apart for full coverage. Or even further to seed poppies, lupins and other wildflowers in during Winter. Additional spacing requires more weed management.
Tolerant of moderate foot traffic.
