Wildflower seed mix

21 years ago

I bought this box of wildflower seed mix(american seed company) from national wholesale liquidators for 1.99. Has anyone ever tried these wildflower mixes? How do they come out looking? The box I have contains quite a few different flowering plants. To name a few...adonis, calendula, centaurea, cheiranthus, shasta daisy, coreopsis, cosmos, delphinium, dianthus, digitalis, echinacea eschscholzia, gypsophila, linum, lupinus, papaver, rudbeckia...Ok I named all lol....I thopught that I would scatter them around a palm tree I have in the middle of the backyard.

Wow... that's a nice mix! I don't know about the tropical area, but in my area, some of those spread mightily. Calendula will probably grow for you during the winter... it will grow, but won't be happy in the heat.
But that is a nice mix... what company is it?

Hi Heathen1, Thanks I feel good about sowing them now. The company is American seed company. Hope they grow here. I took photos of the box so you would know what it looks like, front and back. Just click on the link at the bottom...
