Planting Instructions

Choose the Right Spot: Select a sunny area in your garden that receives at least 6 hours of sunlight per day. Make sure the soil is well-drained.

Prepare the Soil: Clear the area of any weeds, rocks, or debris. Loosen the soil to a depth of about 3-4 inches (7.5-10 cm). This will help the seeds to germinate more easily.

Optional: Add Compost: If your soil is poor or lacks nutrients, you can improve it by adding some compost. Spread a layer of compost over the area and mix it into the soil.

Sow the Seeds: Scatter the seeds evenly over the prepared soil. Aim for a dense but not overcrowded distribution of seeds.

Lightly Rake the Soil: After sowing the seeds, lightly rake the soil to cover them with a thin layer of soil. This will help to protect the seeds and keep them in place.

Water Gently: Use a gentle spray or mist setting on your hose to water the newly planted seeds. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Watering in the morning is ideal to allow excess moisture to evaporate during the day.

Be Patient: It may take some time for the wildflowers to germinate and establish themselves. Be patient and continue to water as needed.

Monitor and Weed: Keep an eye on the area and remove any weeds that may compete with the wildflowers for nutrients and space.

Enjoy the Blooms: Once the wildflowers start to bloom, sit back and enjoy the beautiful display of colors in your garden. Be sure to take some time to appreciate the pollinators that are attracted to the flowers, such as bees and butterflies.
