General Planting Instructions
We recommend a Fall planting (after the first frost, but before
the ground is frozen), for our wildflowers mixes and a Spring
planting (April to June depending on elevation) for our grass
mixes. For mixes with both wildflowers and grasses, we
recommend a fall planting. Prepare the seed bed by roughening
the surface with a rake in order to create furrows approximately
1/80/4 inch deep. Many of our seeds are hairy and are easiest
to hand broadcast rather than using a typical lawn seeder.
Hand broadcast half of the seed while walking in one direction
(e.g. north to south) and the other half in a perpendicular direction
(e.g. east to west). After hand broadcasting, rake the
area again and gently compact the soil using a lawn roller or
similar device. Light compaction will greatly improve germination
by providing seed-to-soil contact and improved moisture absorption.
Mulch may be used and can greatly improve germination for plantings
on dry sites. Use mulch that is weed free and use sparingly.
In the spring, water the soil lightly (the soil should be kept
moist but not soaked) at regular intervals until the seedlings
have at least 2 sets of leaves. You may need to do this
for 4-6 weeks. Next, water deeply and less frequently to
promote deep root growth, approximately 1-2 inches every week
or two. Sandy soil should be watered more frequently than
clayey soil. Please remember that a garden of native perennials
may take a while to fully mature (up to 3 years) but is well
worth the wait! Please feel free to contact us with
any questions..
