shallow seeding depths(%%"). Seed can remain viable for years until the right soil conditions are <br /> met for seed germination. Germination can be prolonged due to naturally occurring seed dormancy. <br /> 2) WILDFLOWERS(Forbs) Native wildflowers are an important addition to this native grass planting. <br /> Besides adding beauty to stands of native grasses,wildflowers are an important food source for <br /> game birds, songbirds, and mammalian wildlife as well as grazing livestock.Wildflowers will be <br /> planted one to three years after establishment of the native grasses.This would allow herbicide use <br /> until the grasses are established and herbicides are not needed.Wildflower species grow well in <br /> stands of established grass. <br /> 3) SEED MIXES <br /> Rec#amation Native Grass Seed Mix pis/ %Seed <br /> Sties Mining Resource-Weld County acre Mix <br /> Western Whea rass Arriba, Barton, Rosana 2.50 18% <br /> Blue Grama Hachital, Lovin ton 1.50 11% <br /> Sideoats Grama (Vaughn, Butte, Niner, El Reno, <br /> Haskell) <br /> 2.25 16% <br /> Smooth Brome Lincoln, Manchar 2.00 14% <br /> Sand dro seed 0.25 2% <br /> Perennial Ryegrass(Calibra or Garibaldi 0.75 5% <br /> tetra bid <br /> Slender Whea rass(Pryor, Revenue or San Luis 2.50 18% <br /> Alkal' rass Fuits II, Salt on Sea 1.25 9% <br /> Swit rass Nebraska 28, Blackwell 1.00 7% <br /> Total: 14.00 100% <br /> Reclamation Native Forb Seed Mix pis/ %Seed <br /> Sties Milining Resource-Weld County acre Mix <br /> Western Yarrow 0.14 3% <br /> Plains Coreo sis 0.27 6% <br /> Purple Prairie Clover 0.59 13% <br /> Narrowleaf Penstemon 0.09 2% <br /> Blanketflower 0.45 10% <br /> Dotted Gayfeather 0.09 2% <br /> Blue Flax 1.58 35% <br /> Clasping Coneflower 0.14 3% <br /> Prairie Coneflower 0.32 7% <br /> Mexican Hat 0.32 7% <br /> Scarlet Globemallow 0.14 3% <br /> Prairie Aster 0.14 3% <br /> Prairie Cinquefoil 0.09 2% <br /> Lanceleaf Coreo sis 0.18 4% <br /> Total: 4.50 100% <br /> PLANTING, MULCH OR COVER CROP <br /> 1) PLANTING WINDOW FOR NATIVE SEED- Ideal dormant seeding window is December 1—May 1 for <br /> the native grasses, followed by an application of crimped native grass hay.
