The importance of local-grown, NATIVE seed (especially habitat restoration) can’t be stated enough. Just because a plant grows in Illinois and Texas does not mean that the seed from Illinois will germinate in Texas. That’s why for our habitat projects we source seed from the likes of Bamert Seed Company, Douglass King Seeds and Turner Seed Co.
Just because a seed blend says “Texas” on the bag, does not mean it is sourced in Texas. Set yourself up for success and check your label.
P.S. Right now is the perfect time to plant natives!
