Wildflower meadow establishment


Site location and Preparation:

Wildflower meadows need an open sunny area with at least 6 hours of full sun per day to thrive. Reduce weeds on the soil surface prior to sowing – good site prep is crucial for success. Try not to skimp on this part of the process. Your site should be as free of existing vegetation as possible. Sod removal, seedbank removal, solarization, sheet mulching, digging, and any combination thereof are all options. Tilling, however, is not recommended as it will bring a whole host of weed seeds to the surface where they will germinate – they are best left buried!  


Timing:

In the Willamette Valley, September through November is the best time for planting wildflower seed mixes. They can still be planted into late winter, but this is not optimal. Most of these species need some exposure to cool temperatures and damp conditions before germination can occur – and the period of exposure varies from species to species. If planted too late in the fall/winter season, some species may not receive their required stratification period and, therefore, may not germinate.


Seeding Tips:

Seed/Sq Ft: A common target seeding rate for the Willamette Valley is 30 – 60 seeds/sq. ft. With the lower end being on a very clean site and the upper end being a site with some existing vegetation. 


One option is to mix the seed with a cutting agent for the best distribution. Inert materials such as vermiculite, coarse-textured sand, rice hulls, and sawdust are all viable options. Mix seed with equal or greater amount of cutting agent. To help achieve a more uniform distribution you can cut the mixture in half. Apply half walking in one direction and the other half walking in a perpendicular direction.


It is OK to cover seed with a light dusting of soil (sift potting soil through a sieve to dust the seeded area with fine soil). Cover only until you can barely see the cutting agent – no more. Some seed species need light to germinate. However, this very thin layer may help hasten germination and help minimize seed predation.


Post-seeding care:

Watering: If there is no rain in the immediate forecast, water in the newly sown seeds.  Also, if there is no rainfall within a few days, water only lightly as needed until you see some seeds sprouting.

Fertilizing: It is not necessary to fertilize your wildflower meadow under normal conditions. Native plants do not require fertilizer, and the application of fertilizer with high nitrogen content will tend to encourage weed growth.

Dog approved for fun, human approved for durability for the price.
Size: 8 Inch Diameter, Color: Orange
This has been my dogs favorite outdoor toy for years . I love these because they are durable and won't deflate when bitten or when carried around in their mouth.... no matter how many holes the dogs put in them. We leave these outside year round even in Minnesota winters. It is strong enough to hold up yet soft enough to be safe on their teeth. Now I do want to say although it is really durable it is not indescribable. IF you have a heavy chewer or a dog that loves to destroy toys, they would need supervision with this I think. My dogs don't try to chew this up but they do wear out over time. We replace it every 2 to 3 years on average. Definitely dog approved and recommended in my home, and human approved for cost and durability. I hope your dogs love it as much as mine do.

Best ball for dogs!
Size: 8 Inch Diameter, Color: Red
This is the best quality and long lasting ball for dogs. It's soft enough to kick and durable enough to where they can chew and chew and it will not lose It's shape. We play hardcore everyday for months and it holds up. Never have to worry about chunks falling off and peeling. Border Collie approved!! Also, $8 cheaper off amazon VS pet store or pet store website. You'll know when it has to be replaced once you have to manually re-inflate with your hands but thats after many many months.

GOOD BALL
Size: 6 Inch Diameter, Color: Apple Green
This is my second time buying this ball for my blue heeler, and it is easily his favorite toy. It is very sturdy, especially for hard-playing dogs, and handles rough outdoor play sessions effortlessly. The design is brilliant because it does not go flat, yet my dog is still able to bite it and get a good grip on it. It’s the perfect combination of being tough but still flexible enough for a dog to enjoy carrying around. For comparison, our first ball finally stayed flat after a solid 2 months of non-stop, hardcore playing, which is a massive win compared to other toys he destroys in minutes. If you have an active, high-energy dog that loves to play rough, this ball is highly recommended!

Best Ball ever! Aussie is obsessed
Size: 6 Inch Diameter, Color: Orange
I will never buy any other ball!!!! I bought the 8 inch which my crazy Aussie liked. The 6 inch one he won't stop carrying it around. his face use to be so sad when he would pop other balls. This one deflates and fills back up instantly! He chases it and chews on it. We gone through a lot of balls, but this is going to be a staple in our house!

Great for crazy pups!
Size: 8 Inch Diameter, Color: Ocean Blue
Tough and fun! This is a great toy to keep in the yard for play. I have a heavy chewer. He can get a hold of it and carry it around but it doesn't pop. It is soft enough but also strong. My dog loves to herd it around. He loves it!
