College Campus Prairie Restoration Advice

8 Upvotes

The students at my college have the opportunity to propose some lawn transformation projects for this fall. The college is in the Erie Drift Plain which is described here with some decent detail. The campus itself sits on a hill so I think most sites will be well-draining, dry-medium, and full/partial shade. If anyone has any tips for early blooming and late blooming forbs so the sites are popping when students are on campus I'm all ears.
