Step 1: Select a site
Native plants will be damaged by herbicide drift, so be sure the location will not have drift. Prairie plants need at least six hours of full sun daily, and plants will not do well on a north-facing hillside. Native plants can establish and thrive in areas that fit these requirements and can be accessed for maintenance. If you plan to use fire to manage your native planting, do not plant near conifers and include fire breaks in the design.
Prepare the site
Eliminate existing plants using one or a combination of the following:
Eliminate existing plants using one or a combination of the following:Apply herbicide. Glyphosate may be applied at 6-8 week intervals and 1 week before seeding.

This works well in areas of less than 1000 ft²Do not neglect this step or the planting will have little chance of success. The ideal preparation time will vary from several weeks to 1-2 years depending on previous land use.
Step 3: Analyze your site
Determine soil type (sand, silt, clay, muck), drainage, moisture, slope, and amount of sunlight. Take a soil sample and test for pH and organic matter. Neither a droughty, infertile subsoil nor a tight wet clay soil is suitable for many wildflower species.

Neither a droughty, infertile subsoil nor a tight wet clay soil is suitable for many wildflower species.Seeding is most successful in spring (mid-May to mid-June) or late fall (mid-October through November). Overseeding and seeding into areas with dead vegetation are most successful in winter when there is no snow cover (November through February).
Step 4: Select proper plant species for your site
Step 4: Select proper plant species for your siteWith information about your site, you can choose plant species that are likely to establish well in site conditions. Choose wildflower/grass species for a permanent planting that are perennial, native to Michigan, and grown as close to your area as possible for better adaptability. Select a variety of plants that will bloom throughout the growing season. If you have a site with high erosion, you may need to sow a cover crop for quick cover.
Step 6: Management
Step 6: ManagementFirst year management
Step 6: ManagementFirst year managementWatering is not necessary but will speed germination and establishment in spring seedings. However, once watering is begun soil must be kept moist continuously until the seedlings are well established.
