Our California Native Fire Wise Mix is a thoughtfully engineered blend of low-flame-fuel native grasses and wildflowers that helps you create a verdant, fire-resilient landscape without sacrificing beauty or biodiversity. Featuring deep-rooted, bunch-forming grasses and drought-tolerant forbs, it establishes quickly to form a natural fuel break—slowing fire spread while stabilizing soil and supporting pollinators.

Key Benefits

Fire-Resilient Species
Includes bunchgrasses with minimal dead-fuel build-up—like Deergrass (Muhlenbergia rigens), Purple Needlegrass (Stipa pulchra), and California Fescue (Festuca californica)—to reduce flame intensity.

Drought-Tolerant & Low Maintenance
Once established, these natives require little to no supplemental irrigation or fertilizer, and they resist pests and disease naturally.

Erosion Control & Soil Health
Deep, fibrous roots bind soil on slopes and disturbed sites, while wildflowers like California Yarrow (Achillea millefolium) and California Poppy (Eschscholzia californica) enhance organic matter and pollinator habitat.

Biodiversity & Habitat
Provides nectar and seed sources for native bees, butterflies, and birds—supporting ecological balance around homes and public spaces.Ideal For

Planting & Maintenance

Seeding Time: Fall (preferred) or early spring to leverage winter rains.

Seeding Rate: 15–20 lb per acre (adjust by site conditions).

Water: Keep evenly moist until seedlings are 3–4” tall; thereafter, rely on seasonal rainfall.

Maintenance: Remove debris and dead thatch yearly; minimal mowing or controlled grazing may be used to manage height.

Create a verdant, low-fuel landscape that protects your property and enriches California’s native ecosystems—choose our California Native Fire Wise Mix for safety, sustainability, and seasonal beauty.
