n Date: Wed, May 6, 2009 Subject: Mowing County Roadsides & Preserving Native Wildflowers n County is celebrating National Wildflower Week by mowing all the Coreopsis (state wildflower) and other wildflowers… n Several people responded by pointing out that the county has recently been mowing native wildflowers at the height of their beauty, and BEFORE they have had time to seed. n Ideally, mowing should be scheduled to allow native wildflowers to mature and disperse seeds… Please postpone these work orders until we have talked. n …we can find a way to maintain county roadsides while also helping native wildflowers survive.
