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.
