Beautiful!

"Bought cheaper seeds from Walmart and NOTHING sprouted, bought these and they took over! Can’t wait to buy even more next year"

— Kiera (5/5)

"Amazing! Do many seeds and no fillers !"

— Toni (5/5)

thanks

"thanks"

Everchanging vista - so good for butterflies

"I chose the Partial Shade Wildflower Mix because I have trees on 3 sides of the area. It was hard work clearing the ground, but I followed American Meadows' instructions. Within 2 months of sowing seeds, I had an ever-changing flower garden. Every week or two different flowers appear in the meadow. The photos don't do it justice. Butterflies love it and now there are caterpillars, too. This is for your side or back yard: the flowers are a bit casual for front yard. I created a border around the meadow. Be sure to leave room for paths so you don't step on the caterpillars as you walk through."

— Mary W. (5/5)

Extremely disappointed

"I religiously followed the instructions, including a soil test and frequent watering after planting. Literally NOTHING came up. I've never ben so disappointed in a product."

— Yooper (1/5)

Terrible partial shade wildflower seed mix

"Loved the results from partial shade wildflower seed mix in 2023 so prepped adjacent area (soil suppress all summer and cleaned of all roots) and seeded with partial shade wildflower mix 2024 yet this summer absolutely nothing but clover and a couple of daisys."

— Wildflower L. (1/5)

So beautiful!

"I had a few patches in my garden that were shaded by trees. I planted this seed mix according to the instructions and in no time I had little green sprouts everywhere in the patch! It seems every time I look I see a new kind of bloom, The mix of colors is very beautiful and the different ones make for a very interesting display to look through! And most important, the bees are loving it all!"

— Meow (5/5)

very few seeds seem to have germinated

"The only flowers that do well are the Daisy's! It could be because there is only about 2""of top soil over a soil consisting of lots of clay??"

— Ultra (2/5)

I WOULD BUY AGAIN

"PLANTED IN PARTIAL SHADE AREAS"

— JOHNNY88 (5/5)

"I love them"
