Why You'll Love It

Introducing Earthwise Seed Company's Southwest Native Meadowscaping Mix, a robust blend tailored to transform your landscape into a thriving ecosystem reminiscent of the Southwestern prairies. This mix combines the resilience and beauty of our Pioneer Wildflower Mix with the durability and adaptability of our Prairie Partners Mix, offering a full-season spectacle that's as hardy as it is stunning.

Designed for regions characterized by poor soil fertility, low-to-moderate rainfall, and challenging growing conditions, this mix includes a rich tapestry of native wildflowers and grasses that not only flourish with minimal maintenance but also enhance biodiversity. The wildflowers, including Blanketflower, Blue Flax, and Purple Prairieclover, provide vibrant blooms and attract pollinators from the first year, with perennials continuing to mature and diversify the display over time. The inclusion of Buffalograss and Blue Grama adds a lush, dense sod that integrates seamlessly, creating a visually appealing ground cover that's drought and sand tolerant.

Application Instructions 

Bare soil vs. overseeding matters — but both are possible.

All Earthwise Meadowscaping mixes can be planted into prepared bare soil or overseeded into an existing lawn or open landscape. The best approach depends on your starting conditions, timeline, and long-term goals.

Bare Soil Planting

  • Offers the fastest, most uniform meadow establishment
  • Ideal for new landscapes, lawn removals, and restoration projects
  • Clear existing vegetation and lightly loosen the top 1–2 inches of soil
  • Broadcast seed evenly and press into the soil surface — do not bury

Overseeding

  • Allows your landscape to transition naturally over time
  • Works best in thin lawns, open soil patches, or low-competition areas
  • Seed-to-soil contact is critical — rake lightly or mow low before seeding
  • Establishment is slower but integrates well with existing soil ecosystems

Timing & Establishment

  • Fall planting is preferred, allowing natural cold stratification for many species
  • Spring planting is possible, though some wildflowers and grasses may emerge later
  • Keep soil lightly moist during early establishment, then reduce watering gradually

What to Expect

  • Germination will be staggered — some species appear quickly, others take weeks or months
  • Native grasses (Buffalograss and Blue Grama) establish gradually and strengthen over time
  • First-year growth prioritizes roots; flowering increases in year two

Functional and Good Quality
Color: 01-silver, Color: 01-silver
I give this SMARTAKE paper towel holder 4 stars. Overall, it's a very good product that I would recommend, but it has one minor drawback that takes away a star. The Positives Quality and Stability: The holder feels good quality, and the material (steel) is sturdy. Once placed on the counter, it's stable and adheres well to the surface. Assembly and Use: It was easy to put together; just read the instruction manual. I confirm that it works well even with large paper towel rolls. Furthermore, it's not difficult to change the roll at all. The Drawback The only problem is the small mechanism that's supposed to adjust and hold the roll (the piece that prevents it from twisting too much). As the paper gets used up, this piece doesn't do its job properly, and the paper unwinds more than it should. Conclusion: If you're looking for a modern, stable, and well-made holder for your kitchen, this is excellent. Just keep in mind that the adjuster isn't the best, but other than that, it does its job perfectly.
