An easy-to-grow pollinator garden for the hummingbirds! This mix includes a mix of 12 US native wildflowers. The mix includes flowers that will bloom from early spring to late fall so hummers have a food source all year long! Planting in full sun is the best. The seeds will also reseed themselves and come back year after year! Fall and spring are the best times to plant!
To plant, toss seed balls 3-6 inches apart in a sunny area over the soil. You can let mother nature take over. Or you can water them to start the process. Keep the soil damp until some of the seeds sprout. Then water regularly until established with two sets of leaves. Some seeds need weather cues from mother nature, such as winter and the day length.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where to plant?
I like to remind people that wildflowers grow just fine on the side of the road or in the crack of a sidewalk. Each mix has a good variety of flowers so many will be happy anywhere you plant them. Flowers do best in full sun but can tolerate some shade also. You can also plant them in a pot , raised garden bed or in that area of your yard that needs a little love.
When to plant?
Fall and spring are the best time of the year to plant wildflowers. Some wildflowers need winter to tell them to start growing. So depending on when you start growing, you may see more flowers in year two!
Will the flowers come back?
This mix includes both annuals and perrenials. Annuals will need to reseed themselves yearly, which means if you leave the flowers to die on the plants and then drop their seeds they will come back! Perrenials will grow for more than one year but will drop seeds each year! Also remember polliantors love to hide in dead flower blooms to overwinter! So think twice before ripping out that old bloom.
