Wildflower Seeds - Plains Region
The Great Plains cover a large area in the the Central US that was once home to vast prairies and grasslands. The area stretches from Mexico to Canada, but has one thing in common - not a lot of rainfall. Much of the area gets less than 20 inches of rain in a year, and it is concentrated in the winter months. It takes drought-resistant plants, like the prairie wildflowers, to get through the long, dry summers on their own. If you have a way to irrigate the prairie wildflower seeds you buy online, then you can grow a lot of things in the plentiful sunshine of this region.
