Our Alternative Lawn Wildflower Seed Mix™ is a versatile blend of plants that will develop into a lawn filled with texture and natural beauty. If you have uneven terrain or a steep hillside, or if you simply like the idea of mowing less, our Alternative Lawn Wildflower Mix is the perfect lawn replacement.

Wildflowers make an excellent lawn alternative they require little maintenance or supplemental water once they are established, and they only need to be mowed once per season. This blend will grow with ease in any full-sun location.
What's in this Mix
