Planting Instructions and Seed Info
 |
We hope you enjoy these seeds, which are a mix of seventeen different wildflowers - ten annuals for first year color and seven perennials for successive years' blooms - that will attract and nourish pollinators in your garden!
|
PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS: After last frost, scatter seeds directly on top of soil. Lightly compress the seeds into the soil, making sure not to bury them. Water so that the soil is moist. Once the seedlings are about 4-6" tall, they will survive on natural rains.
