Planting Instructions
How to Plant Northeast Mix
When to Plant Wildflowers
For Spring planting, it is best carried out within a month or so after the final frost of the winter season. It is important to not plant too early; if seeds are installed prior to a late-season frost, they will be lost for the season and will need to be are-seeded.
For Fall planting, make sure you plant the seeds after the first killing frost to eliminate any chance of germination. Planting in the Fall gives you a jump start on Spring blooms
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. Don't panic when some weeds sprout along with the flowers, this will happen when the soil is worked.
We recommend mixing your seeds with sand - 5 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. For larger areas, we recommend a seed spreader to create a better cast of the seeds.
After the seeds have been sown, lightly compress the seeds into the soil about 1/2" to protect from birds and wind.
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 spend to encourage new growth.

BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!
I was very skeptical but after only 1 week I started seeing little sprouts popping up! We're about a month and a half in and I have light pink, fuscia and white flowers. I am so excited about my wildflower garden. I also ordered the Pollinator Mix and can't wait to see what all I get. Thanks for a great product!

They all bloomed!
I have tried wildflower seeds before without success, however these are spectacular. I covered a sandy hillside with them and boy did they grow. Now my ugly hill of dirt and weeds is beautiful.

Had Great Results
Planted 2 years ago and have had great results. A nice mix of colors and the various flowers alternate well. I did have competition from weeds, but the growth seems to have won the battle. A very strong mix in general. I am buying more to fill in some spots that seem weak.
