Eden Brothers All Perennial Wildflower Mixed Seeds for Planting, 1/4 lb, 120,000+ Seeds with Lupine, Shasta Daisy | Attracts Pollinators, Plant in Spring or Fall, Zones 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

Easy to sow. Just planted. Daily lighting watering. Germination hasn't occurred yet.

Seeds were very viable and sprouted just a few days after sowing. Because they are perennial seeds they are not planted as are other seeds. They are mixed with playground sand (not just regular sand), in a 5 to 2 sand to seed ratio, and spread evenly on the surface of the flower bed. Once sowed, carefully use a leaf rake and gently spread the mixture, but not not bury the seeds below the surface of the bed. Water in immediately after sowing and then water daily until the plants have begun to emerge, then water less frequently because as the plants grow taller, the roots are going deeper in the earth. In addition, the seeds were sprouting within three days of being planted.

Plenty of beautiful flowers

I was initially a bit disappointed in this seed packet because the growth seemed rather sparse and not a big variety, but this year has proven me wrong! This is the third spring for these flowers and they look amazing. There’s varieties that have never flowered before and I can see that we’ll have a nice cycle of flowering flowers as some bloom and others die away. So if you’re bummed that your wild flower patch didn’t produce much, give it a few years! (The picture of the flowers in the vase are wildflowers from this seed packet and some purple irises, not from this packet)

Tilda the area I was planning these there was no grass so it was aerated. They’ve been in the ground about 11 days now and I can see no signs of germination either they take a lot longer than I thought or somethings wrong with them. I don’t know.
