Hiiii I’m back 🫠 I forgot to actually order the seeds 2 months ago when y’all bullied me (positive) into committing to flowering this field so help me pick 1-2 seed mixes!! Idk if doing 2 different mixes is dumb? I could overlap them or split the field in half. The possibilities are endless
Where my dog is sitting is roughly where the city property begins. The other half is HOA property and gets mowed more often so I won’t be seeding that part. The greener pic is from the beginning of March, browner pic is from this week just so you can see what the field looks like! The grass does get real wild and tall in the summer when they stop mowing, like 2-3ft if I had to guess
Soooo…what mix should I do? Leaning toward a combo of Native Trail and Pollinator? What do you think? Someone yell at me so this looks gorgeous in a few months!!

oooh, I love the idea of mixing Native Trail and Pollinator! it’ll attract so many cool critters and make the field look super vibrant! splitting the area could be a fun experiment too, can’t wait to see how it turns out! don’t forget to post pics of the progress! 🐝💖
I did both plus the shade mix, first year was kind of a dud due to lack of rain, since it’s been good. My only regret is I put down too much seed mix, I get a good variety of flowers in the beginning of the season but then something tall tends to crowd out the smaller ones. It’s still a good blast of color
