Planting Prariegrass & Wildflowers There is a growing interest
in wildflower and native grass plantings by acreage owners. If
properly planned and established these plantings will provide a
very pleasing and low maintenance ground cover that will help
prevent weeds. No herbicides were labeled for use in controlling
weeds during establishment and maintenance of these plantings
until American Cyanamid Company introduced the herbicide
PLATEAU. It may be used to control weeds in native grass and
wildflower plantings. Selecting Grass and Wildflower Species The
grasses and wildflowers selected most have tolerance to PLATEAU
herbicide. It is also desirable to select species that require a
low level of maintenance. If shorter growing grasses are
selected. Little or no mowing will be required to remove excess
growth. |Short Grasses||Perennial Wildflower and Legumes
