Dear Lincoln, Several of you recommended native seeds from Prairie Moon together with Native Plant Trust in Framingham. We are finally at the point that we can start planning the restructuring of our yard! Electrical project is 99% complete; we wait only for Comcast to move their cable so that Eversource can take the old pole and service line down. For our neighbors - thank you so much for your patience over the last year. My goal is to start seeding in the fall - native only - and to try my hand at winter stratification as well. The number of native seeds available from Prairie Moon is staggering...I almost want to buy everything. For those of you who have purchased native seeds from them, I would love your recommendations in terms of what you loved and what didn't work out. My native volunteers are mostly yellow, purple, and white, so other colors are welcome! I'm looking for plants that will attract pollinators. I currently have Rudbeckia hirta (black-eyed Susan), almost every goldenrod imaginable, several different types of aster, spotted and american wintergreen, clasping venus looking glass, Lobelia inflata (Indian tobacco), rabbit tobacco, lanceleaf coreopsis, daisy fleabane, several sedges, mosses, cinquefoil, white and blue violets (may or may not be native), etc. We also have lady fern and sensitive fern. We have shady, part shade, and sunny spots. Thank you in advance for your recommendations!
Warmly, Terry Kay
