Know before you buy
The plants in this mix are selected for their ability to drop seeds at the end of the season. These seeds will naturally germinate the following spring, allowing the patch to return year after year with minimal effort.
The sowing rate is 2 grams per 17 square feet, or 1 ounce for every 250 square feet. Be sure to calculate your garden area beforehand to ensure you have enough seed for your desired coverage.
Yes, the 16-inch height makes this mix well-suited for containers, window boxes, or raised beds. Just ensure your containers have adequate drainage and receive full sun throughout the day.
While the mix is designed for continuous color, removing spent blooms can encourage the plants to put more energy into new flowers rather than seed production. However, if you want them to self-sow for next year, you should leave the final blooms of the season on the plants.
Yes, the blend features over two dozen varieties specifically chosen to create a diverse habitat. These flowers are highly effective at attracting a wide range of pollinators to your yard.
Germination code 4 indicates that these seeds generally require specific conditions to sprout, often benefiting from being sown in the spring once the soil has warmed. Always follow the specific instructions on the seed packet for the best results.
