If you are still offering I would like any of the below seeds. thanks, karen GW: karendee Columbine Nora Barlow Golden Marguerite Daisy Allium tuberosum Lettuce 'Lolla Rossa' Cleome pink and a bit of white mix Coreopsis NOID Sweet william NOID Shasta Daisy (shaggy-crazy daisy type) Gaillardia 'Arizona Sun' Blanket flower poppy-unknown labeled "giganticum" Cinnamon Basil california poppy 'sunset mix' Celosia Pink flamingo Cleome pink

Let seed dry for at least 8 weeks & then store dry at 40F for 12 weeks.

Thanks Don. I will wintersow the seeds and hopefully have a nice crop of new plants next spring. I already feel like expanding the front bed so that I will have room for the Echinacea paradoxa, Eryngium yuccifolium, Prairie Dropseed, and Big Bluestem that I will be wintersowing as well. Scottyboi I will take some photos once the plants put on some size. The grasses for the most part were gallon sized or larger but the milkweeds and Echinacea pallida were in small 4" pots so they will take a while before they look like much. Mike

ncrescue, the first photo is definitely taken in the evening, and I am pretty sure the second was a morning shot. There are no bad times of day, here, lol! Theresa, hi! I hear that area is gorgeous, and if I can ever get a horse sound again I would love to ride up there. maybe we can hook up sometime. lycopus, we already have finches up the wazoo, and we already have rosinweed growing in our field. But hubby did sneak in some compass plant seeds, even though our soils and location are dry and dry mesic. We are trying to stick with shorter species, but he couldn't control himself with the compass plant, lol! I should make up a complete list of the seeds that will be going down in the next week or so. esh, thanks for the welcome! christie, yes, we are restricted somewhat to what we can plant in the yard, basically nothing that is on any invasive species list anywhere...which is completely understood, but difficult for me because I am also a landscaper and deal with ornamentals. TNC was the second owner of this property, and while they owned it they put a conservation easement on it, focused mainly on development but also addressing the planting restrictions. As far as planting natives not in my area, that is a tricky question. We are eager to be good neighbors with TNC, but even they are beginning to plant some species that are "new" to Nachusa. So I guess it will depend on the species and how urgently I feel the need to have it. ;o) They feel VERY strongly about our using seed with local genotypes, so we do the best we can to know our seed sources. The word on the street is that once upon a time there was the endangered Wooly Milkweed on this original property, but the third owners sprayed out the fields for pasture. It will be interesting to see if it actually makes another appearance, given the opportunity. terrene, yeah, perfoliatum will spread around pretty aggressively. They don't even collect it at Nachusa, because they known it will get itself where it wants to be, lol! I have added several new birds to my life list since living here, and hope to spot some more next Spring. I feel very fortunate to live here, and am grateful every day. Seriously.
