Peaceful Valley Regional Western Colorful Dryland Wildflower Mix - Nitrocoated Seed (lb)

This colorful wildflower and legume mix blooms in spring and summer, reaching heights of 12–36". It includes six species—three native and three imported—with five annuals and one perennial. Contains Crimson Clover, Hykon Rose Clover, Blue Lupine, Berseem or Persian Clover, California Poppy, and Yellow Lupine. Ideal for full sun sites with low fertility and minimal competition from tall grasses. Clovers are nitrocoated for nitrogen fixation. Plant in fall or early spring; fall seeding should occur when soil temperatures are below 40°F to delay germination until spring. Spring plantings may require irrigation in dry climates for successful establishment and reseeding.

Fall and Spring are the best times to plant wildflowers. Fall planted seeds do not need to be irrigated and should be planted late (even into the winter). This is so the soil is too cold for the seeds to germinate (40&F or less). The seeds will stay dormant in the soil until it warms up in the spring.

In areas that do not get late Spring or Summer rains, Spring-planted wildflowers will need to be irrigated until they bloom and set seed the first year, but they will naturalize to grow with winter rains in following years. Wildflowers grow best on sites with full sun, low nitrogen, low soil fertility and with existing stands of shorter grasses for soil stabilization.
