When it comes to selecting wildflowers for your garden or landscape, it’s important to consider the height of the plants. If you’re looking for wildflowers that won’t grow too tall, United Seeds’ Not Too Tall Wildflower Mixture is a great option. This mixture is specifically designed to include wildflowers that will reach a maximum height of three feet or less.
The Not Too Tall Wildflower Mixture is a combination of approximately 18 different annual and perennial wildflowers. This diverse mix ensures that you’ll have a variety of colors, shapes, and sizes in your garden. Whether you’re looking for vibrant reds and yellows or delicate blues and purples, this mixture has something for everyone.
One of the great things about the Not Too Tall Wildflower Mixture is that it can be used in a variety of ways. If you’re looking to create a wildflower meadow or habitat, you can use this mixture as 100% wildflower coverage. The low-growing species will create a beautiful and diverse habitat for pollinators and other wildlife.
Alternatively, if you prefer a more structured look, you can blend the Not Too Tall Wildflower Mixture with lower growing native grass species. This combination creates a visually appealing landscape that is both natural and organized. The wildflowers will provide pops of color and texture, while the grasses will add height and structure.
In my own personal experience, I have used the Not Too Tall Wildflower Mixture in a variety of projects. One particular project stands out in my mind – a small garden outside a retirement home. The residents wanted a garden that would attract butterflies and other pollinators, but they also wanted to be able to see and enjoy the flowers up close. The Not Too Tall Wildflower Mixture was the perfect solution. The low-growing wildflowers created a beautiful display that could be easily admired from a seated position.
