Recreate the spectacle outdoors, and enjoy bouquets of fresh cut flowers in your home.

    I absolutely love these flowers. At first I thought there’s no way they will all sprout… they did and it made for very special spots in my garden. I was amazed at the variety and colors.

    Grew wonderfully since I planted it in early winter, like you are suppose to. I always feel like people are quick to blame their experience with poor germination on the seeds and not their inability to read and comprehend the germination and planting instructions. Keep up the good work Botanical Interest!

    The only things that grew were a bunch of Indian blanket and one Mexican hat. Maybe the Indian blanket grew faster and overpowered everything else. Still beautiful, though.

    I guess I planted too late in May/should have followed your guidelines of planting 2-4 weeks before last frost/ for Onondaga city that would be late april, early may.I must have planted close to the end of may...too late? no germination at all- not one sprig of Wildflower came up
