"some of the seeds in this mix are not native to Georgia. I think I'll buy some packets of seeds that are."
"I cleared a 10 by 15 area of lawn, put the seed down last fall, per the directions. This spring summer has been magical watching the different plants grow and bloom, as welll as watching the insects and birds discover it. Right now the goldfinches are enjoying it. I'm so happy with it!"
"I planted around 1/4 acre in April, by May I had growth. I mixed the SE Native with the Monarch Seed Mix. It has been beautiful! So far, it has been primarily annuals, I've seen some perennial growth, but hopefully we'll see more in the second year."
"These beautiful wildflowers have really turned a not-so-attractive area of our backyard into a wonderful oasis for our friend pollinators!"
"I've used this product in multiple areas over multiple years. Depending on your specific conditions you'll get different plants that do better. There are a couple shady, damp areas where the partridge peas do better, but the coneflowers do better in drier, sunny areas. I've still gotten good results in all cases, and now I have multiple, varied pollinator gardens! #sweepstakes"
"We had no rain after the seeds were planted. I managed to keep them moist for the first three weeks. I had many seedlings. Then I had to go out of town. Not much growing when I got back. I'll try again next year."
"Used this mix to start a wildflower garden. First year came up great, second year excellent results. I expected more of a variety of colors, but this mostly has come up yellows for me. Note to others-- I had a chamberbitter outbreak in my lawn last year, and so when these began to sprout this year, I thought it had infested my flower bed as well. After weeks of pulling up the "weeds" I realized that they were the partridge peas 😂"
"Growing well. Attracting birds, bees and butterflies. Would have liked more diversity in color"
"I love these flowers"
"Not sure if it will improve in year 2, but at the end of the first year only one species has come up in any numbers. We did have a drought and I wasn't able to fully kill off the grass in the seedbed but I did expect better. I'll give it another year but if the wildflowers don't improve I'll mow them down and start again."
