The Oklahoma territory/Texas region is made up of southern plains and deserts blending into subtropical coastal beaches. From the mountains and lush forests of eastern Oklahoma and Texas to the dry plains leading to desert going west. This diversity extends to the wildflowers that grow throughout the state, which are influenced by the unique soil and weather conditions of each region. In the eastern part of Texas, where the soil is rich and moist. Noted for roadside color throughout most of the year. Colorful vistas with bluebonnets, Indian paintbrush, and evening primrose from spring into summer only flourish in Oklahoma & Texas landscapes.
These seed mixes make great choices because the species establish easily and last through the tough growing conditions. Coastal areas of Texas should consider a Gulf Coast mix that we can provide on request. The extreme eastern Oklahoma and east Texas areas often use the Southeast Native Seed Mixes, or Midwest Native Seed Mixes due to proxity and overlap of those regions. Western Oklahoma and Texas often consider Southwest Native Mixes, if desert climate prevails. The Oklahoma Texas Native Seed Mix has species that thrive in all regions of Oklahoma and Texas.
If the soil is thin and dry or sandy then using one of our regional xeriscape seed mixes is recommended. ALWAYS consider the land your soil is on, the microclimate: drainage and soil tilth which shows moisture holding quality of the soil. Low tilth soils have low organic matter and can be improved with compost and greensand, a trade secret to improve soil tilth. These are easy amendments to add that address special considerations of poor soil tilth. Looking at the way water flows will help determine if you have dry soil conditions, think of hills where rain flows down.
Other choices for specific uses can be found in SHOP BY USE section*: Special Use Seed Mixes, Pollinator Seed Mixes, Native Grass Seed Mixes, and Regional Native Wildflower Seed Mixes.
