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.

A neighborhood show-stopper!

"I am a resident of a condo who has volunteered to rehabilitate the landscaping. One of the most difficult sites is a planting bed between the driveway to the parking garage & main building entrance. The soil is thin, dry, in full sun and not near a hose bib. About 6 years ago it was seeded with a home improvement store wildflower mix that contained Shasta daisies, and a variety of other plants that needed constant watering. Over time the Shasta daisies took over and crowed out all of the plants. After digging out the Shastas, we replanted with a good-quality wildflower seeding mix that didn't contain invasives or ""strong growers"" like the Shasta daisy, and which has minimal water requirements when established. This first growing season the annuals dominate but are showy enough to cause passing traffic to slow down and gawk a little!"
