Planting & Care

Step-by-Step Wildflower Seed Planting Instructions

  1. Check for your last frost date and plant after this has passed. Choose a
    spot on your property that gets 6 or more hours of direct sun a day unless you are planting seeds for shade.
  2. Prepare your soil by clearing the area of all existing growth. Simply dig up everything that is growing, turn the soil and rake the area flat. If this is an area that has never before been gardened, you may need to till the area up to remove growth.
  3. Mix the seeds with sand* for better visibility and scatter the seeds directly on top of the soil. If you are sowing a larger area, we recommend using a seed spreader; if not, you can sow by hand.
  4. We recommend lightly compressing the seeds into the soil, making sure not to bury them. You can either walk on them, use a board or if you are sowing a larger area, rent a seed roller.
  5. Water so that the soil is moist, not soaking wet, until the seedlings are about 4-6" tall. After that, the seedlings will survive on natural rains. If you are experiencing very dry weather, we recommend watering occasionally.

Great Wildflower Seed Mix

"Fire victim here. Survived a 100 mph fire but lost 700-800 trees on 20 acres. Planted multiple new bee gardens but getting tired of the cheat grass. So I tried this seed mix. Set up a round sprinkler, weeded the area, and amended the soil lightly (to help with water run off). Two months later I have a dense, tall wildflower garden. The bees love it, and it has a nice floral scent. But I did have to use castor pellets (to keep the moles out) and rubber snakes (to keep the ground squirrels out)."

Never areived

"Never got delivered"

— Abc (1/5)

Sooo happy with the recults

"My first time planting from seed—and couldn't be happier with the results. Truly spectacular, beautiful, and awe-inspiring. Good for my eyes—and my soul."

— BSJ (5/5)

WE LOVE OUR NEW DRYLAND MEADOW!

"I mixed red flax with the dryland mix."

— TB (5/5)

Easy and beautiful results

"I use this abundantly in my pollinator cottage garden. So many flowers to look at and the mix reminds me of California (I now live in Indiana). Does beautifully in sandy and amended soil, and I never have to water! #sweepstakes"

— Valerie (5/5)

A nice mix, but look at this beauty!

"One of my cosmos plants grew crazy tall. It's literally a bush with about 80 flowers at this point. I love it."

— Annie (5/5)

Very pretty!

"These took a little while, but then they just started sprouting and would surprise me with something new every other day! It's so much fun going out and seeing which flower is going to reveal itself. Just lovely."

— Rena (5/5)

These wildflowers were easy to grow & a beautiful assortment

"Planted these seeds along the driveway where there is no sprinkler system. They grew extremely well with just rain supplemented by watering during extended dry periods."

— Sassy (5/5)

High Desert NoLawn solution

"Better than expected! I used this in the high desert, zone 5b to start removing areas of grass in the yard. The pollinators really show up for it"

— Pigeon (5/5)

I would buy it again and plan on it for another area

"They are beautiful, I will buy more for another area. Bees and butterflies love them!"

— MarMay (5/5)
