How to Grow Wildflower
in Spring, Summer or Fall!
Wildflowers are some of
the easiest and most rewarding plants to grow. They require little effort and
water once they are established, and provide show-stopping color year after
year. They also help provide food and habitat for local wildlife and
pollinators, including birds, butterflies, bees, and more. Thinking of planting
Wildflowers this season? Follow the simple steps below and you’ll be thanking
yourself once your garden or meadow is bursting with blooms!
Planting In Spring
Spring is a great time
to plant Wildflowers in most states. In spring, wait until your ground
temperatures have warmed to 55 degrees, and there is no chance of frost in your
area.
If you’re in a warmer
climate (California for instance), you will want to plant in the tail end of
your “rainy season,” which will give the seeds plenty of natural
water to germinate.
Planting In Fall/Winter:
Areas With Cold Winters, Hard Frosts & Frozen Ground
If you live an area
where you have a true “winter season,” meaning you receive hard frost
and the ground stays frozen for several months, than fall is the perfect time
to plant!
You will want to wait
until you’ve had several killing frosts and ground temperatures are cool enough
that the seeds will not get the chance to germinate until the spring.
Planting in the fall
gives the seed a “jump start” on growth once the ground thaws. It
also helps to eliminate the growth of weeds, as the Wildflowers get the chance
to start growing and take over the weeds in the early spring.

Wildflower Seeds In Winter
Planting in Fall/Winter:
Areas With Mild Winters/No Freeze or Frosts
If you are in an area
where your ground does not freeze (California, southern Texas, or Florida,
etc.), the best time to plant is just before your rainiest season begins, and
so the weather won’t be too hot for young seedlings. In Florida, fall is best.
In California and Texas, most wildflowers are planted during the winter to take
advantage of early spring greening.
How To Plant Wildflowers
In 6 Steps
Choose a spot on your
property that receives at least 6 hours of sun per day.
The more sun, the better
with Wildflowers!
Prepare your soil by
clearing the area of all existing growth.
This is an essential
step to the success of your Wildflower planting. Dig up everything that is
growing, turn the soil over and rake out debris from the area before spreading
any seed. You may need to till the area if there is an excess of grass, weeds,
etc. on your property.
Mix the Wildflower Seed
with sand for better visibility.
Mix 10 parts sand to 1
part Wildflower Seed. If you’re planting a larger area, use a seed spreader. If
it’s a smaller area, you can simply spread the seed by hand.
After spreading the
seed, compress the seed into the soil.
To allow the seeds full
sunlight, do not cover them in any way. The better seed-to-soil contact, the
better chance of germination. You can walk on the seed or use a roller for
larger plantings.
After planting, give the
area a good water.
We recommend watering
regularly (but not soaking the area) until seedlings are about 4-6″ tall.
After that, Wildflowers require little to no water and can survive on natural
rains.
Enjoy!
Some annual varieties
will bloom as soon as 5 weeks after planting. Some take longer, and perennial varieties do not bloom until
the second year. Once established, perennial Wildflowers come back year after
year and are a true spectacle in any garden or meadow.
