Description

Named for Capt. Clark of Lewis & Clark, the clarkias are some of our most beautiful natives. This is the large-flowered single clarkia usually called “godetia” in the seed trade, and also nicknamed “Farewell-to-Spring.” The brilliant color of this wildflower makes it one of the showiest of all in meadows. For a double-flowered related species, see C. unguiculata.

Comments about American Meadows Godetia Seeds (Clarkia amoena) - 1/4 LB:

Spectacular display! This is the second year that I've planted these seeds in lean clay soil in full to part sun. I broadcast them, stomp them into the ground, cover them very lightly with mulch to confuse the birds, and water once a week. They have a good germination rate, and if you water them 1x a week during the summer, they'll bloom for months. The hot pink color and variation in the individual blooms make for a great, cheerful display. The neighbors look forward to seeing them each year.
