Annual Wildflower Mix
A showy burst of color the first year!
An ideal way to have growth and color in Year 1 while slower-germinating perennials get established
About Annual Wildflower Mix
Landscapers and gardeners often want growth and color the initial year of planting while their slower-growing perennials and biennials get established; or, maybe only 1 year of flowers is desired. Annual Wildflower Mix is beneficial as a cover crop for perennials, as erosion control, as temporary food plots for wildlife, and as an attractant for butterflies; it's adaptable to a wide range of soils as well.
For best results, seed in late fall after frost or in early spring. In the spring, germinating seeds will produce plants with color in 8 to 10 weeks and will continue to bloom into fall. If allowed a full growing season, some natural next season reseeding will occur; however, an additional 2-4 lbs/acre each year is needed to ensure results similar to the first year. If using as a cover crop for perennials, do not exceed 2 lbs/acre to ensure optimum results.
Wildflowers included: Baby Blue Eyes, Baby's Breath, California Poppy, Candy Tuft, Catchfly, Clarkia, Clasping Coneflower, Corn Poppy, Cornflower, Drummond Phlox, Dwarf Red Coreopsis, Evening Primrose, Indian Blanket, Painted Daisy, Showy Partridgepea, Plains Coreopsis, Rocky Mountain Bee Plant, Scarlet Flax, Sensation Cosmos, Sulphur Cosmos
