I have thousands of native plant seeds I am intending to plant along this creek bed. I was going to rough up the ground, plant the seeds, tamp down and let nature do its thing. But if we get heavy spring rains it might wash away so planning to just do the top and slopes, nothing in the bed itself. Thoughts?
Flower seeds:
black-eyed susans
purple coneflower
blanket flower
California poppy
Other seeds:
Little Bluestem is a native prairie grass with roots up to 6' in depth to help with the Midwest clay soil. Planning to plant in late May.
I also have a few redbuds I'm planning to transplant as well.

I wouldn’t. They’ll all wash away with the first rain.
Use plugs here or start the seeds in contact and transplant.
