Our 5th Annual Seed Collection Event
We’re Back for Year Five — and Growing Stronger!
We started growing our first 4-packs of prairie plants during winter of 2018. By the end of summer 2019, CGS had the bones of an amazing native garden filled with wildflowers and grasses. We waited another year to let everything grow strong and begin creating their progeny: SEEDS!
The growth of our meadow/prairie plants over the past several years has been astonishing. Coneflowers, asters, and wild quinine have spread throughout the beds. Native grasses grow from 6 inches to over 6 feet tall each year. Milkweed and beebalm throw raucous parties.
Some of the plants you can harvest include coneflowers, asters, boneset, milkweed, Joe Pye weed, beebalm, and penstemon. Native grasses include little and big bluestem, side oats grama grass, yellow (Indian) grass, and switch grass. We have too…
