Foothills Native Mix
The Foothills Native Mix represents some of the key native, perennial species found in the upper Pinon Juniper to Ponderosa zone (approximate elevations 5, 000 – 7,000). This mix is designed for landowners who desire species naturally found in this environment. It does include 10% Lewis Flax, a pretty blue flower that establishes well. These FireWise species are very drought tolerant once they get established.
