| Abstract/Contents: | Profiles various specialty wildflower seeds being developed by Wild West Seed of Albany, OR, Applewood Seed of Arvada, CO and S & S Seeds of Albany, OR. States that "Wild West Seed's Tapestry Wildflowers, for example, is a new line of mixes specifically formulated to the growing conditions in a geographic area. The Tapestry mixes are currently blended for California, Texas-Oklahoma, Northeast, Southeast, Southwest, Midwest, Pacific Northwest, and Western." Describes Applewood's Xeriscape Mixture as "specifically formulated for dry, upland, or well-draining sites. It is useful for areas that have been stricken with drought and where water conservation is desired." Also explains S & S's coated seeds which can be seen on the ground, allowing for more seeding. |
