Shop Annual Wildflower Seeds

• Annuals: Complete their life cycle in one season, providing abundant blooms but requiring replanting each year to maintain color.
• Perennials: Return year after year from the same root system, offering long-term beauty.
• Why Choose Annuals? They’re great for quickly filling empty spaces, experimenting with new looks each year, and delivering season-long colors that many perennials can’t match.

Areas With Freezing Winters | Generally Zones 1-6
(Northeast, Midwest, and The Rockies)

• Fall Dormant Seeding: Dormant seeding is ideal in late fall (November-December) to ensure that seeds germinate in early spring.
• Spring: For annual wildflowers, plant in early spring (April-May) as soon as the soil is workable and temperatures are consistently above freezing.
• Summer: Annuals can be planted in late summer (August-September) to allow for late blooms before the first frost. However, this requires attentive watering.

• Fall: In these regions, you can also plant in fall (October-November) for blooms the following spring.
• Spring: Plant annual wildflower seeds in early spring (March-April) when the last frost has passed.
• Summer: Annuals can be planted in late summer (August-September) to allow fall blooms, but be prepared to water frequently.

• Fall: Fall planting (October) works well to encourage early spring blooms.
• Spring: The best time to plant annual wildflowers is early spring (February-March) for early blooms.
• Summer: Plant in late summer (August-September) to avoid the hottest months and allow for a bloom period in fall.

• Self-Seeding Potential: Annuals complete their life cycle in one season, but many self-seed. Leave some flowers to go to seed, and you may see new plants next spring.
• Guaranteed Blooms: For reliable blooms, plan to replant your favorite annuals each year, as self-seeding isn’t always guaranteed.
