Cool thanks for all this! I would be delighted to buy from your org's nursery, I'm trying to grow some and buy some to keep costs down. I have goldenrod seeds on order and aster seeds outside in containers. I'll have to revisit all your comments to see what else you said.
Mountain mint seeds also on order. One thing I need help with is grasses, I don't know how to utilize those at all. Going to read up on your organization 🙂

Something like Andropogon virginicus can go pretty much anywhere that isn't deep shape. I like that throughout a site.
Schiz., Tridens, want drier and more full sun.
Sorghastrum is big and reseeds readily. Don't go overboard there.
Elymus great for suppressing weeds
