This simpler version of our Diverse Mesic Woodland mix still includes many common woodland species. It will do well on most soils (except saturated) in full shade. Except for a few taller wildflowers, the species in this mix tend to stay under 4ft. Because of its reduced diversity and species selection, it can be provided at our minimum 1000 sq ft area.
