  • Step-by-Step Wildflower Seed Planting Instructions

    • Check for your last frost date and plant after this has passed. Choose a spot on your property that gets 6 or more hours of direct sun a day unless you are planting seeds for shade.
    • Prepare your soil by clearing the area of all existing growth. Turn the soil and rake the area flat. 
    • Mix the seeds with sand* for better visibility and scatter the seeds directly on top of the soil. If you are sowing a larger area, we recommend using a seed spreader; if not, you can sow by hand.
    • We recommend lightly compressing the seeds into the soil, making sure not to bury them. 
    • Water so that the soil is moist, not soaking wet, until the seedlings are about 4-6" tall. After that, the seedlings will survive on natural rains. If you are experiencing very dry weather, we recommend watering occasionally.
