Meet our Xerces Southern CA seed mix, the little champions of our local ecosystem. Farmed by local green thumbs, with pollinators in mind these seeds don’t need a drop of chemicals to shine. They’re a magnet for our native pollinators and thrive in the sunlight, no matter what the soil’s like. Having a tough time with your patch? We’re here to help, or ask your friendly neighborhood nursery.
Our Xerces Southern CA Seed Mix creates a charming banquet for pollinators, featuring blooms that attract bees and butterflies throughout the year. We have even included special host plants for local butterflies and grasses, creating a cozy nesting spot for bumblebees. Our mission revolves around cherishing plants, insects, and our precious planet.
Xerces is a science-based nonprofit organization founded in 1971, that protects wildlife through the conservation of invertebrates and their habitats.
