Prairie Pleasure - Grass & Wildflower
Mix An astounding display of colorful wildflowers highlight this balanced mix, specially formulated to meet Ohio CREP requirements. The attractive wildflowers play host to a wide variety of insect species. That's critical for baby chicks because insects are their only food during a chick's first 4-6 weeks of life. Supplementing the wildflowers are four short and tall warm season grasses that provide wildlife with nesting material, and a sturdy shelter against harsh winter weather and winds. With this mix, it's a pleasure to manage a prairie so advantageous for the land and wildlife. |
