Second year flowers seem much nicer than the first year, though I did heavily reseed the area this spring; maybe the plants needed to get established to bloom at their full glory, if that makes any sense, but I guess these are self reseeding annuals(?) Even looking out the window from 100' (31 meters) away, I keep noticing individual uniquely colored blooms. It's mid September, and there's lots of blooms. But these are the first wild flowers I ever planted. I've no idea how these compare to other wildflower seeds; I've no basis for comparison. However, maybe the fact that I occasionally water these is the reason they look so good. And I'm still noticing a few new varieties I hadn't seen before, some are very tiny plants, others much taller. But in July of the second season since I started planting these, despite seeding a bit later than I meant to each year, I've got immense patches of color where there were none before. So happy that I bought a second package of seeds from Eden brothers. I wonder if packages of every one of the separate varieties of flowers are available? (Eden says no, they don't sell separate single-species seed packs of these). I'd love to plant little batches of only one kind of these along a pathway to enjoy each variety growing by itself. If I had to say something negative, it might be that these are a little bit heavy on the yellow/orange variety that predominates, but that's not really a problem. Highly recommended, I'd buy these again for sure. October 9, 2025 update- My patch of wild flowers- a 35' diameter circle with a sprinkler in the center - has been an adventure through a blooming wonderland, there being so many different varieties with differing blooming times, and just a couple very low growing flowers I have no idea what they are. So I have this profuse disc of growing color, still at it's prime and poised to still give me much more color, but there's a frost warning tonight, and I think it might be well worth the price of running the sprinkler all during the expected 7-hour frost episode just to keep these from freezing at least for another week or two. It would be very handy if there was a guide book that corresponds with only the varieties in this seed assortment to make learning about each kind idiot proof. Little did I know that these would prove to be one of my best Amazon purchases ever. Seller- is there a forum for your customers who bought this wildflower assortment (Eden Brothers Southeast Wildflower Mixed Seeds), 5 pounds in my case?

The seeds arrived on time and were very viable. Be sure to cultivate the ground properly. We planted annuals the first year and they were an explosion of variety and color. We planted perennials the second year. They grew just as robustly, fewer colors, but that was expected. Also I believe that a lot of perennials don't flower in the first year. We are going to continue to plant perennials in other areas. Very satisfied!

I raise bees. Planted roughly 75’x75’ patch of these flowers. Seeds grew great, but definitely not all plants that are advertised was in the order. I would say roughly 75% of the flower species came in the bag from the ones in the picture. Certainly attracts a lot of butterflies but I haven’t seen a single bee around ANY of these flowers. They definitely made the wife happy so I guess it’s a good trade off. Would plant again due to success of germination and happy wife, but will probably find something just as pretty that attracts bees from a different company. Side note…another good thing about this mix is it’s almost the middle of August and these are still blooming strong here in central ohio

Planted these a couple months ago and the seeds began sprouting within days; however, not one flower to date! Just looks like wild grass and weeds. I guess I’ll have to pull it all out! NOT RECOMMENDED!! UPDATE! Upgraded to three stars after flowers finally started to appear. Not many, and it took a very long time but at least there are a few to look at. Update 2: Took months but finally an acceptable amount of pretty flowers. Now that I know, I would purchase again.

I hoed the ground to get rid of existing weeds and then threw the seeds in the street planting strip in front of my house. Nothing else. It was amazingly beautiful. Random people walking down the street would compliment the planting strip to me or I would overhear them complimenting it to other people. I have never had so many compliments. I seeded it quite heavily to overwhelm any weeds and I must have inadvertently timed it right. Update: This year again I threw seeds down in three places, one in the fall ( the same one as last year I threw more seed just in case), and the two other places in different times in the spring. All look insanely beautiful. People again compliment and take photos of it every day I am out by the street median. The interesting thing is each area has different flowers dominating. Its so amazing. Of all my gardening this has been the most beautiful and it was barely any work. Update: This mix has FOXGLOVE an invasive species! Ugh! How could the company selling it include an invasive species? So sad because the mix is gorgeous otherwise. It was the most beautiful part of my garden.

Gave as a gift. Was disappointed in the packaging. Just a mesh bag with tiny information. Not at all like the photo.

Love these seeds! Container grown in zone 5b. I typically sow them around Mother's Day. Not uncommon to see germination begin in a few days, with flowers starting around late June. By mid-July, things really start to pop. Alot of corn flowers, coreopsis and cosmos in the mix and I sprinkle in some zinnia seeds and a sunflower seed or two. If the weather cooperates, I'll get blooms from July through late October :) Soil prep and watering are key: just because they are wildflowers doesn't mean you can just chuck them on the ground and expect good results. Sprinkle them into loose soil, press them into the soil with your hand or shoe to get good seed to soil contact, then dust them with a light layer of peat or potting mix to help keep them stay put when watering. Happy growing!

Las planté en varias zonas de mi jardín y únicamente se me dieron en las zonas en donde pega el sol durante muchas horas al día. Un placer la sorpresa de ver aparecer las distintas flores
