Know before you buy
While specifically curated for Michigan's climate, this mix is suitable for USDA Hardiness Zones 3 through 10. As long as your local conditions provide full sun and moderate water, these varieties should thrive.
Because this blend contains a mix of 60% annuals and 40% perennials, you can expect blooms from spring through fall. Annuals typically bloom in their first season, while perennials may take longer to establish before flowering.
No, this specific mix is not recommended for containers. These plants are designed to reach heights of 25 inches or more and perform best when sown directly into the ground.
One pound of the Michigan Wildflower Seed Mix provides coverage for up to 1,200 square feet. Ensure you plant the seeds at a depth of 1/2 inch for optimal germination.
Yes, the varieties included in this blend are considered deer resistant. While no plant is entirely deer-proof, these species are generally less attractive to local wildlife looking for a meal.
Since the mix is 40% perennial, those varieties will return on their own each year. The 60% annual portion will need to be reseeded if you want them to appear again, though some may self-sow naturally.
