Both wildflowers and legumes have the ability to improve soil quality. These plants contribute many benefits, including increasing soil organic matter, improving soil structure, and nitrogen fixation. Legumes have the impressive ability to convert atmospheric nitrogen into a soluble, easy-to-absorb form.

Create an eco-friendly area

Wildflowers are pollinator plants that create a welcoming habitat for birds, bees, butterflies, and insects. These plants not only offer coverage and nutrients to wildlife and pollinators but can also improve the air and water quality of your surrounding area.

Low maintenance = great results

Looking for plants that will thrive with minimal maintenance? Wildflowers and legumes that are native to your area will grow into healthy, beautiful plants without costing you an arm and a leg. Wildflowers in particular require significantly less water and maintenance than non-native flowers.
