Perennials include California poppy, of course, and Mexican Gold Poppy too, plus red Mexican Hat and two Evening Primroses, the yellow and the famous pink.

Planted wildflower seeds in December. It is now, end of May and they are still blooming. I have received so many compliments from strangers and neighbors on how beautiful they are. They also want to know where I order them. American Meadows. Awesome seeds.

Comments about American Meadows All Native Southwestern Wildflower Seed Mix - 1/4 LB:

Planted the seed in November, but I think our winter was just to much. Followed the instructions, but a few weeks after planting we had terrible winds and about three very heavy rain storms and most of the seed was washed away. We have a few varities that made a show here and there, but what few poppies came up are still only a half inch tall. Will try again next year!
