Collection: Fall-Sown Flower Seeds

Sow in fall for strong roots, early color, and a beautiful spring garden.

Fall-Sown Flower Seeds

Sow in the cooling days of fall and let seasonal rain and winter chill help prepare the garden for spring color. Fall-sown flower seeds are especially useful in mild-winter regions, where many hardy annuals, perennials, and wildflowers can establish roots before their main burst of growth. The result can be earlier blooms, sturdier plants, and a more natural progression from winter soil to a lively spring garden.

Choose varieties suited to your climate and planting window. Prepare a clean, lightly worked seedbed, follow the sowing depth on each product page, and keep the surface evenly moist until seedlings establish. In colder areas, some varieties may be better sown in late winter or early spring.
