Since 1988 Michigan Wildflower Farm has been providing quality seeds and service. We specialize in native Michigan seed production and native landscaping services.Whether you are planting a small or large plot in your yard, landscaping a workplace, stabilizing your shoreline, establishing wildlife habitat, or restoring a natural area, it makes good sense to utilize native plant species.Native spe

cies are adapted to Michigan’s climate and soils. Over time utilizing native species can save both the environment and money as fertilizers, watering, and continuous mowing are not necessary. These plants provide habitat for Michigan’s wildlife, which is quickly disappearing with development.

Last week the project team installed native plants on the perimeter of a pond in Okemos. The client has been having erosion issues due to the turf grass that went right up to the edge. Between the shallow roots of the grass and the consistent mowing happening so close to the pond, more and more of the shoreline was disappearing.
Installing natives along the perimeter should help alleviate the problem since their root systems are MUCH more substantial and can hold much more soil in place.

We had the pleasure of visiting one of our project installations last week and can I just say WOW!
This project was installed in December of 2023 and is a beautiful example of what to expect the first couple years. Early on only a couple species will show their faces, but many more species are below these blooms and will pop through in the next couple years.
