Hi,
Do you know a good source for native pollinator seed mixes?
Like a hummingbird mix/bee mix/helpful insect mix?
Native plants though? Not sure how far "native" stretches in my area.
Anne Arundel County Maryland
Expert Response
We don't keep track of inventory or companies that provide this, nor can we recommend specific businesses. Anne Arundle County is in the coastal plain region of our state so you could search for sources that have 'Maryland ecotype seed' or 'mid-Atlantic ecotype seed'. Some companies will do a seed blend that is suitable for your growing location, and you can specify that you are in the coastal plain region.
The Alliance for the Chesapeake Bay has a nursery in Baltimore that sells native plants, but they may have some recommendations for seed sources as well.
Good luck!
