Description: Feeling overwhelmed by garden design? Here's the answer! This kit contains a laminated design layout for an 8ft x 8ft shady space and 68 native plants that love our woodland habitats. Perfect for providing a soft landing for pollinators around an oak tree or as a stand-alone garden! Based on the principles of matrix design, this kit contains everything from ground-covering sedges to beautiful wildflowers to feed a diversity of pollinators and support our native trees. The density leads to plants covering the ground quickly, leading to increased weed suppression. All species are chosen to grow nicely together in a small space. The back of the laminated design even contains tips and tricks for successful garden stewardship!
