❓ Mountain Wildflower Seed Mix FAQs – Planting, Coverage & Care

When should I plant the Mountain Wildflower Mix?
For best results, sow the mix in early spring after the last frost, or in fall before snowfall. Fall planting allows natural stratification, while spring planting gives quicker first-season blooms.

Will I get flowers in the first year?
Yes! The mix is 45% annuals, so you’ll see a colorful bloom in the first season. The 55% biennials and perennials will return and spread over subsequent years, increasing in beauty over time.

What elevation is this mix best for?
This mix is ideal for elevations above 7,000 feet. It’s specifically designed for mountain climates in the Western U.S., including Colorado, Arizona, Utah, Montana, and similar regions.

Does it grow well in dry conditions?
Absolutely. These species are selected for their ability to thrive in low-moisture, well-drained soils typical of mountainous areas.

How tall do these wildflowers grow?
Under typical conditions, expect flower heights between 36 and 48 inches. Some species will spread and reseed, filling in over time.

Is this mix safe for pollinators?
Yes! It’s loaded with nectar-rich species that attract bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators. This mix supports biodiversity and ecosystem health.

How much seed do I need for my space?

• 4 OZ covers 500–1,000 sq ft

• 1 LB covers: 2,000–4,000 sq ft
  Choose a size based on the density of coverage and area you want to fill.

Can I plant this in containers or raised beds?
Yes, you absolutely can. For best results, plant more densely than you would in open ground, and choose deeper containers to accommodate root depth. While the mix is designed for large, naturalized areas, it can still create a striking display in raised beds and patio containers with a bit of extra care.

Are these seeds non-GMO and chemical-free?
Yes. All seeds in this mix are untreated, non-GMO, and sourced for purity and resilience. They are never coated with synthetic chemicals.
