The Mowable Meadow

Mow Different

The Mowable Meadow is an innovative solution we've developed to bring natural meadows into suburban landscapes. Simply put, the Mowable Meadow involves overseeding native wildflowers into your existing lawn and shifting how the space is managed. Designated meadow sections of the lawn are allowed to grow untouched throughout the season, while pathways and borders are mowed as usual to frame and shape the space.

This approach differs from our Native Meadow Seeding service, where we typically eliminate the existing grass with herbicide before seeding. We view the Mowable Meadow as a hybrid approach that bridges traditional lawn and true native meadow, bringing more flowers, biodiversity, and natural beauty to our clients' landscapes.

The Mowable Meadow requires a bit more patience, as the wildflowers must compete with existing grass. Healthier, thicker lawns present more of a challenge to seed than weaker lawns. However, with patience and sometimes repeated fall overseedings, we can deliver the best of what our native meadows have to offer.
