Just wanted to share an area of lawn I’ve taken out and planted with natives. I started 50% from seed indoors and purchased the other 50% as plugs from a native plant nursery.
I planted this in mid-May so we are about 2 months in but things are coming along nicely and actually looking pretty good. In the fall I plan to add a couple native azaleas towards the top of the hill to fill it in.
Species planted:
Rudbeckia fulgida
Eastern Columbine
Stokes aster
Whirled milkweed
Purple love grass
Little blue stem
Eastern blue star
White wood aster
Dense blazing star
Sweet joe pye weed
Whirled milkweed
Wild bergamot

Hope to see a third picture full bloom.
Amazing! Did you dig out the grass, or cardboard + mulch? Something else? It’s gonna look great!
Awesome start, good luck!
