Milkweed meadow

This area contains plants from the “Pollinator patch kit”, planted as plugs in the fall of 2024. It’s taking a while to fill out since the soil was quite heavily disturbed by a sewer pipe installation and is very sandy. However, a lot of volunteer plants started appearing in spring 2026. The milkweed appeared there on its own and is a great natural addition!

Species:

• Butterfly weed
• Lance-leaf coreopsis
