Why You'll Love It

Introducing Earthwise Seed Company's Southwest Native Meadowscaping Mix, a robust blend tailored to transform your landscape into a thriving ecosystem reminiscent of the Southwestern prairies. This mix combines the resilience and beauty of our Pioneer Wildflower Mix with the durability and adaptability of our Prairie Partners Mix, offering a full-season spectacle that's as hardy as it is stunning.

Designed for regions characterized by poor soil fertility, low-to-moderate rainfall, and challenging growing conditions, this mix includes a rich tapestry of native wildflowers and grasses that not only flourish with minimal maintenance but also enhance biodiversity. The wildflowers, including Blanketflower, Blue Flax, and Purple Prairieclover, provide vibrant blooms and attract pollinators from the first year, with perennials continuing to mature and diversify the display over time. The inclusion of Buffalograss and Blue Grama adds a lush, dense sod that integrates seamlessly, creating a visually appealing ground cover that's drought and sand tolerant.

Application Instructions 

Bare soil vs. overseeding matters — but both are possible.

All Earthwise Meadowscaping mixes can be planted into prepared bare soil or overseeded into an existing lawn or open landscape. The best approach depends on your starting conditions, timeline, and long-term goals.

Bare Soil Planting

  • Offers the fastest, most uniform meadow establishment
  • Ideal for new landscapes, lawn removals, and restoration projects
  • Clear existing vegetation and lightly loosen the top 1–2 inches of soil
  • Broadcast seed evenly and press into the soil surface — do not bury

Overseeding

  • Allows your landscape to transition naturally over time
  • Works best in thin lawns, open soil patches, or low-competition areas
  • Seed-to-soil contact is critical — rake lightly or mow low before seeding
  • Establishment is slower but integrates well with existing soil ecosystems

Timing & Establishment

  • Fall planting is preferred, allowing natural cold stratification for many species
  • Spring planting is possible, though some wildflowers and grasses may emerge later
  • Keep soil lightly moist during early establishment, then reduce watering gradually

What to Expect

  • Germination will be staggered — some species appear quickly, others take weeks or months
  • Native grasses (Buffalograss and Blue Grama) establish gradually and strengthen over time
  • First-year growth prioritizes roots; flowering increases in year two

Glitter with staying power
Color: Rainy-Rainbow, Color: Rainy-Rainbow
Super fun and sparkly, the color is beautiful, it comes with 2 glue tubes with brushes that you use to rub the glue onto your skin in order for the sparkle to stick better and longer, made a heart shape on my arm, dries fairly quickly and washes off easily when you're done with it It sprays a fine layer and evenly, it's great for building on for more sparkle or to just have a light layer Even without the glue it lasts at least a couple hours with minimal shedding and light use, seems to have good longevity With 2 glue tubes, a refill tub, funnel and the glitter spray bottle I feel $10 is a great value considering everything you get with it, Overall I feel like it's a fantastic product and will buy again!

Decent for the price.
Color: Rainy-Rainbow
The color is pretty, the bottle seems to be working well for now. The atomizer pump is so cute and makes me feel super dainty and girly! I love the xtra refill, the funnel and two glitter glues for makeup looks. The glue is good enough to hold the glitter but not too sticky where it leaves a nasty residue. So that’s a plus and it’s easy to wash off. However, the glitter does not adhere or stay in place on dry skin. I’m assuming it’ll be great to spray on the body if you have some type of oil in for it to adhere too but haven’t tried it yet. Will update next weekend.

Love it.
Color: Rainy-Rainbow
This glitter is gorgeous on. Really easy to apply, sprays evenly and a good amount at once. It wasn’t a nightmare to deal with either clinging to things it fell/rubbed onto which I was pleasantly surprised by. It cleans up very well. A little goes a long way too, so it should last a while. It stayed on my body fairly well throughout the night too. I have really sensitive skin so I was hesitant to even get glitter at all. I tried body glitter 2 years ago but it was a liquid spray kind and I broke out in an intense rash all over. I also have a chronic hive condition so my skin flares up from products due to sensitivity. I did not have ANY issues with this glitter.
