Prairie Clover

A native, warm season perennial! Purple Prairie Clover (Dalea purpurea) is found growing throughout much of the United States and yields showy blossoms on bright green, 1- to 3-foot tall, upright stems. Blooms last all summer long and are very attractive to bees and butterflies. Ideal for borders, rock gardens and native landscapes. (Perennial)

Each packet contains approximately 250 seeds.

Planting and Growing Tips:
These easy to grow wildflowers do well in most areas, but thrive in sunny locations with well drained soil. Direct sow in place after temperatures have warmed and space 12- to 18-inches apart in all directions. Mulch around plants to discourage weeds and conserve moisture. Once established, plants require little moisture.

Note: Germination is greatly improved with a 3- to 4-week cold treatment (see Seed Stratification). Place seeds and slightly damp paper towels in a Ziploc bag and store in the refrigerator prior to planting.
