Botanical Interests "Bees, Birds, and Butterflies" Flower Seed Collection - 10 (Ten) Packets with Recyclable Colored Box and Tie with Bow

We cleared a part shade patch of our garden, it was full of weeds and wild things but we wanted a daintier wildflower spread full of color. Spread with vermiculite and seed spreader and gently pressed into newly laid topsoil and tilled area, seeds seem to have taken better in topsoiled area but that could als be because that area gets more part sun than the tilled area that gets more full sun. Germination was quick and within about 45 days we saw our first blooms, right now there appear to be sunflowers and poppies about to poppies, sunflowers, and cosmos up next to bloom. I mixed a few packets in one bed and am so excited to see it progress with minimal watering. Already bunnies and birds using it as cover and tiny bees and butterflies visiting!Update a few months later and mini meadow has grown into summer meadow filled with bee balm, sunflowers, zinnia, cosmos, and even son black eyed susans. Very happy with germination and mix of colors!

Oh my! These seeds came is such cute packaging. I have planted three different packets and have had 100% germination. I’m in south Texas, I also planted some of them later than the seed pack recommends and they still cake up.

Who doesn't love flowers? I'm so looking forward to my beautiful flower garden. Note to bees and butterflies: "get your nectar here!"

Used for garden

Love the variety - happy with this purchase!

Last spring I bought several packets of Botanical Interests seeds at a local store, including Showy Milkweed, Sunflower (Mammoth Grey Stripe), and some herbs and veggies. The germination was about 10%, while other seeds and seedings thrived in the same area. The seeds were packed for 2017, and the packets looked clean and dry, but it's also possible they were mishandled somehow before they got to my store.
