Prefer a more compact planting?

Select the “Compact / Border-Friendly” option when ordering and we’ll prioritize lower-growing species suited to pathways, borders, and smaller gardens. "Natural Meadow" may include a broader range of taller species selected to support pollinators and habitat diversity. Please expect some variation based on seasonal availability and the natural differences found among native plants grown from seed.

Depending on height preference, species may vary based on seasonal availability but may include:
