Hey, it can't hurt to try, and that was sweet of them to buy you seeds for Christmas.

Very sweet, I am hoping I get a little something so I can show off for them!

I might not have put the most work into it, but I did dig up a patch of yard and added some topsoil to give it a lil something besides sand. Plus I picked a spot I have been wanting to add some plants (where I really want to add is a spot that gets mostly shade in short day months and mostly sun in long day months... What a pain in the rear!!!!) I figured it might not be a great place for seedings to grow.

If your wildflower seeds are Florida wildflowers, then they don't need any help from topsoil. You would do better to start them in containers with the same medium in which you intend to plant them.

I'm sure you'll get something pretty out of it. Probably lots of pretties.

What a sweet gift. Very thoughtful!

I keep eyeing the big bag of wildflowers at HD for the slope behind our house.

It's a thing of perennials and one of shade, I tried looking up some of the flowers, it seems to be a mix that just puts together a bunch of different seeds so no matter where you live something will grow in your area. I noticed yesterday there seems to be some seedlings already sprouting!

I feel like I should not say this next part as for I will jinx it, but... And the cat does not even poop in this flower bed ... yet! But it is next to a fence with a dog on the other side so that might be why. Lol. Although the cat walks in that area all the time!

Cats can be so bad! :-)

Good luck with your wildflowers. At least you have less grass! hehe!

I cut my bougainvillea the other day, the flowers had finally faded and I want to keep it manageable. I put the long branches Infront of the wild flowers, it won't keep cats out, but hoping armadillo or possums won't want to cross the thorn branch.

Ohh no, I don't want that!!!
