Upland Savanna Economy Mix

The Upland Savanna Economy Mix uses a variety of native forbs, flowers and grasses to restore ecosystems to the consistency of the ancient oaken savannas that were at one time prominent throughout the northwest.  This mix has been used to restore field and forest habitats and is aimed at promoting natural, healthy and balanced wildlife environments.

Extensive and meticulous hand collection throughout the natural Oak Savannas scattered around the Willamette Valley have led to the propagation and development of this specialized mixture.  We have combined rare and abundant native species of forbs and grasses in our Upland Savanna Economy Mix, which is a true representation of many of the natural Northwest habitats.

On a site of bare and loose soil, that will provide optimal seed-to-soil contact, a broadcast seeding rate of 10 lb./acre may be used.  If very little site preparation has been done (i.e. only scratching the surface of the soil and existing vegetation is present), then use the doubled rate of 20 lb./acre.
