Going Native in SoCal
With Basic Native Erosion Control Mix

© 2008 Wendy Dager

S & S Seeds' Basic Native Erosion Control Mix is comprised of annual native California species formulated for rapid growth in the lower rainfall climates and varied soil types of central and Southern California. For this reason, it is the best choice for permanent or temporary cover in areas that may not temporary cover in areas that may not support perennial natives without the addition of irrigation or soil amendments. These seeds are adapted to California's regional climates and plant communities, and can be used around sensitive native habitat and in conjunction with other species, including wildflowers, without the fear of native gene contamination. Comprised of Cucamonga Brome (Bromus carinatus"Cucamonga" ), Tomcat Clover (Trifolium tridentatum) and Small Fescue (Vulpia microstachys), Basic Native Erosion Control Mix should be seeded at 32 pounds per acre with a mature height of 30-35 inches, an emergence of 10-15 days and establishment of 45 days for 90 percent cover.
