Direct seeding of shrubs along roadsides in Massachusetts

Direct seeding trials of six native shrubs in combination with four grasses led to these recommendations and conclusions: (1) shortlived grosses should not be used; (2) at least double the seeding rates used in this test should be applied; (3) mixtures of grasses tailored to specific sites and seasons, should be used; (4) spring seeding of the shrubs is preferred over fall seeding.
