You are talking about a native patch in a non-native yard. That's not how this works. You make a native YARD. The fact that they spread seeds is a GOOD THING. It's not a weed, because it belongs there.
It's self-seeding, it's self-maintaining. It's not magic, it's evolution. The plants are supposed to be there, they want to be there, the ground wants them to be there, nature wants it to be there. You're building a house in nature, not putting a tiny spot of non-natural nature in your lawn.
The maintenance is less, but you still have some. You just need to make sure that invasives stay out, but past that, it's mostly self-maintaining.
Having one flower gets its seeds under another plant can cause issues of competition, even with native plants.
Uhh native doesn’t mean self seeding or self maintaining. Your native plant isn’t native here and does the same exact thing unless it’s invasive…
You claim I’m uneducated and you only spout marketing they sell to people who haven’t read or studied horticulture.
Heres a great resource so you can educate yourself instead of repeating marketing verbatim.
Great point right here for you
