Know before you buy
Since this is a perennial mix, the plants focus primarily on root development during the first season. You may see limited blooms initially, but the display will become significantly more vibrant and established in subsequent years.
This blend consists of 15 specific species that are naturally unpalatable to deer. While no plant is 100% deer-proof, these varieties are chosen because deer typically avoid them, significantly reducing the need for fencing or chemical repellents.
Yes, this mix is suitable for container gardening. Ensure your containers have adequate drainage and are placed in a location that receives full sun to support the plants' growth requirements.
These wildflowers thrive in full sun, meaning they require at least six hours of direct sunlight daily. Once established, they are considered low-maintenance and have low water needs, making them a drought-tolerant choice for many climates.
You can plant these seeds in either the spring or the fall. For the best results, sow them at a depth of 1/2 inch in well-prepared soil.
Absolutely. The mix is specifically curated to attract beneficial pollinators, providing a reliable food source for bees and butterflies throughout the summer and fall bloom seasons.
