FAST FACTS
WILDFLOWER MIX PLANTING
INSTRUCTIONS
WHEN TO PLANT WILDFLOWERS: When to
plant wildflower seeds largely depends on the climate and rainfall patterns in
your area as well as the type of seeds you are planting. In cool climates,
planting wildflower seeds in spring or early summer is ideal since temperatures
are warm enough for germination but not so hot that it’s difficult to keep
seeded areas moist. Planting in summer is not recommended since it is difficult
to keep seed beds continually moist for the first 4-6 weeks. The hot summer sun
tends to dry the soil out too quickly.
Wildflower seeds can also be planted
in fall in cool climates. Dormant fall wildflower plantings should be late
enough so that seeds do not germinate until spring. These must be done when air
and soil temperatures are too low for germination, typically after several
freezes but before there is snow cover. The seeds will lie “dormant” in the
soil until spring when warmer temperatures and moisture are available. Soil
expansion and contraction during the winter can also improve seed-soil contact
(cold stratification). Perennials can also be sown in early fall provided that
there are at least 10-12 weeks of growing time before the plants go dormant for
the winter. This amount of time generally allows enough root growth for plants
to survive the winter.
WHERE TO PLANT WILDFLOWERS: Though
many wildflowers do tolerate some filtered shade, and a few actually thrive in
it. The vast majority are definitely sun lovers. Wildflowers will generally
sprout in all but the most difficult conditions. This means that pampering your
site with fertilizer or rich sod is not usually necessary.
HOW TO PLANT WILDFLOWERS: Clear the
area and work the soil as best you can before planting your seeds.
We recommend mixing your seeds with
sand - 2 parts sand to 1 part seeds. This allows for a more even distribution
and also provides a convenient way to mark which portions of the site have been
seeded and which have not. For a smaller area, you can hand-broadcast the
seeds. After the seeds have been sown, lightly compress the seeds into the soil
about 1/2" to protect from birds and wind.
MOISTURE REQUIREMENTS: All seeds,
including wildflower seeds, need ample moisture to germinate and to develop
into healthy seedlings. Best results will be obtained by soaking the planted
areas thoroughly and maintaining consistent moisture for 4-6 weeks. Afterwards,
watering can be gradually reduced over several weeks. In non-irrigated
situations, plant in the spring or before periods of anticipated rainfall.
HOW TO CARE FOR WILDFLOWERS: Although
Wildflowers are pretty easy to take care of, there are some steps to keep it
looking beautiful. Regularly weed to ensure your wildflowers are getting the
nutrients they need. Water your plants during dry spells. Deadhead blooms that
are spent to encourage new growth.
WHAT TO EXPECT FROM YOUR WILDFLOWER
GARDEN: Most of our wildflower seed mixes contain annual, biennial and
perennial species. Please read the mix contents. The annuals are included to
assure maximum color during the first season and to act as a nurse crop for the
slower-growing perennials. Annuals germinate quickly when conditions are
favorable, providing a quick ground cover and competition against weeds. Most
perennial and biennial species begin to bloom the second season, but not as
profusely as annuals. Therefore, wildflower plantings look noticeably different
after the first year.
