DESCRIPTION: A must-have for gardeners in Ohio, Kentucky, Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, North Dakota and South Dakota. Contains 25 easy-to-grow favorites perfect for the region including Prairie Coneflower, Blue Flax, Sweet William & more. Features 60% annual and 40% perennial wildflowers. Produces a gorgeous display of blooms without needing much attention or time. Once you prepare the soil and sow seed, Mother Nature will guide the way! RESULTS: You can expect to receive 100% Non-GMO seeds with zero fillers. Many of the varieties are pollinators and will attract birds, bees and butterflies to your landscape. The Midwest Wildflower Seed Mix is tailored to all states in the region and can be successfully planted at various times throughout the growing season. Spring is the most conventional time of the year to sow flower seed, but successful results can also be achieved by planting in summer in cooler zones. PLANTING: Many gardeners plant perennial wildflowers in the fall to get a jump on spring blooms. Before you get started, make sure your dedicated area is in full sun. A general rule of thumb is “the more sun the better.” Minimal tree coverage and little obstruction from other structures like a home or garage is best. Prepping the soil is simple: remove unwanted grass and growth, then loosen the soil to create an environment where your seeds will thrive. PLANTING: Now sow! Mix one part seed to five parts sand and distribute the mixture evenly over the soil. Finish up by lightly compressing seeds about ½ inch to protect them. Sit back and enjoy! Because the Midwest Wildflower Seed Mix contains both annuals and perennials, you’ll get to see blooms in your first season of planting. The annuals will pop, then the perennials will flourish the following season. This is normal! WHAT TO EXPECT: Perennial varieties usually show limited germination in their first season after planting, but will bloom to their full potential in the following growing season. You may also see some weeds and grasses pop up—these are wildflowers, not roses, so don’t worry when you see some additional sprouts. You’ll care for your meadow by mowing it after the blooming and season is over. Remove any brush left on top, and get ready for your next batch of blooms. WHAT TO EXPECT: The Midwest Wildflower Mix was specially created to include a wide range of varieties that will ideally bloom at slightly different times. The mix gives you the widest range of color for the longest season possible. You’ll see bright yellow, orange, red, purple, white and nearly every color of the rainbow. Most wildflowers will bloom in spring and summer, while some varieties will bloom into the fall as well. You can expect thick coverage with amazing results. WHERE TO PLANT: The Midwest Wildflower Seed Mix will thrive in the following midwestern states: Ohio, Kentucky, Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, North Dakota and South Dakota.
