Reviews

Predominately Black-eyed Susan

"I was expecting to see more variety. The vast majority of flowers that grew were Black-eyed Susan. There were some of the other flowers. I would say about 95% of the flowers were Black-eyed Susan. Still looked good but as I said, I thought would see more of the others. We'll see what year 2 brings."

— Obie (4/5)

A little goes a long way!

"We bought a half pound and Mixed the seeds with sand so we could see the scatter pattern. Stripped the grass and put down about an inch of wood compost. We should have cleared more grass because I overseeded and the flowers got crowded. The prep was difficult but worth it! We had heavy rain and a lot of flowers were beat down during the development phase. They continued to grow horizontally but turned upward. We also had to battle deer with cow panels. The neighbors and those that we know driving by have showered us with many compliments!"

— ReadnSing (5/5)

Very happy with this mix

"The beauty of this mix exceeded my expectations. It was my first crack at a wildflower garden and I already see all sorts of pollinators enjoying these flowers. I plan to put this mix in on a much larger scale for next year."

— E. K. (5/5)

Amazing stuff!

"Just raked the old bed, scattered the seeds, and watered with a little Miracle Gro. Love the results!"

— Astrosanta (5/5)

A good product.

"Easy to start and care for."

— Sam (5/5)

All Cosmos

"Maybe I have to be patient for the following planting year but this year only cosmos bloomed. They are very hardy and beautiful but I was not given a mix as promised. I also purchased the pollinator pack that has similar seeds."

— Rowan (2/5)

I was extremely happy with the beautiful blooms

"We wanted to replace a good part of our grass lawn with flowers, so we chose this seed mix. We were not disappointed with the results! The annuals that bloomed were just stunning. Now at the end of the summer black eyed Susans are blooming. The pollinators love it and that's what we wanted."

— Michelle (5/5)

I have bought this again for next season and also as a gift

"These were used in combination with the annual seed mix in an area formerly occupied by blue spruce trees that were removed. They were sewn in both fall and spring in spaces between shrubs in sandy loam soil."

— Jay (5/5)

Great Seeds!

"For the last couple of years our Auto Repair Shop has bought these seeds from American Meadows in bulk to rebag and give away to our customers. Our customers think it's great and come back to tell us how beautiful they are and how well they've done. I planted some at home after the power company took out some trees and they have done incredibly well, especially for the first year. I also like that they don't all bloom at the same time, we have had constant blooms of different kinds from early spring on."

— Stellas B. (5/5)
