Growing Non-GMO Midwest Mix Wildflower Flower Seeds

Wildflower seeds are accustomed to surviving all on their own in the wild. Therefore, they are easy to plant and maintain. Scatter the seeds in the fall or springtime and watch them bloom all summer! They will flourish more readily when they are watered in the spring to help them come up and whenever there are long periods without rain. Depending on the climate, you may need to either cut these back every few years to keep them controlled or re-plant the seed mix if it appears to be thinning out. Weather, cultivation methods, and altitude all determine the expected amount of life.

The perennials will return happily every year, and the annuals will voluntarily reseed. To prevent re-seeding, remove blooms as soon as they have wilted. Plant this dazzling mix once, and you should get easy color year after year! In some areas, you may wish to overseed every few years to keep the clump dense. Likewise, it may be necessary to pull up some of the more vigorous species over the years if you desire to keep them in a particular shape or space.

Sowing wildflower seeds as domesticated garden elements became popular in Europe during the late 1800s. The privileged of the time grew tired of the formal and redundant flower beds of tradition and became more interested in gardens mimicking the "wild" and "natural" of real flowers. Various poets and writers of the time moved away from classic roses and trimmed hedges and embraced the unpredictability of natural gardens.

This is a mix of annuals, perennials, and biennials. The annuals typically reseed coming up much the same as the perennials. Buy bulk Midwest Wildflower Seed mix.

Tips From Our Gardeners

"I love suggesting wildflowers to shrink the size of lawns in suburban environments. The trimmed and perfectly green lawn was once the pinnacle of wealth. Now, it’s a symbol of environmental collapse. Wildflowers can be a great, low-maintenance, and beautiful way to replace portions of your lawn and make it more welcoming to crucial wildlife."
