Shoreline Stablilization Kit

MNL understands the importance of Minnesota’s lakes and wants to protect this incredible natural resource. The Shoreline Stabilization Kit is designed to provide
attractive, natural protection and native habitat on the water’s edge. Safeguard any shoreline from erosion with this collection of deep rooted aquatic plants while
creating habitat for a wide range of wetland creatures and spawning grounds for a variety of fish.

Plant on the shoreline of any large body of water.

This kit includes 36 live plants.  Six plants of each species listed below.  We recommend planting in a 40-60 square foot area.
