This 36 species, diverse pollinator mix is designed for the state of Alabama. This mix with 25% grasses would best be used in areas where prescribed fire is utilized as a management tool. Higher grass % helps carry fire, however burning in the growing season may lead to more grasses post-burn. It meets the standards for CRP, EQIP, CSP, and most other conservation programs (*Be sure to check eligibility with your NRCS office if you are purchasing for a program*).
** milkweed may need to be added or increased for certain NRCS programs *
