Wildflowers - Partial Shade Scatter Garden Seed Mix

$499 USD
Size

Description



The Wildflowers Partial Shade Scatter Garden Seed Mix is a specially formulated seed blend designed for gardens with partial shade conditions. This mix includes 15 diverse shade-tolerant wildflower varieties, making it suitable for areas that receive 2 to 5 hours of direct sunlight daily. 

  • Ideal for planting in garden beds, borders, or container gardens with partial sun
  • Low-maintenance and drought-tolerant once established

This seed mix is perfect for gardeners seeking colorful, low-maintenance wildflowers that thrive in shaded or partially shaded areas. It is especially suited for adding visual interest to shaded garden corners, woodland edges, or under trees where full sun is limited. The Wildflowers Partial Shade Scatter Garden Seed Mix offers an affordable and eco-friendly option for establishing native wildflower habitats without the need for extensive site preparation.

We recommend lightly raking the area after scattering and maintaining consistent moisture during germination. Once established, these wildflowers require minimal watering and fertilization, making them suitable for environmentally conscious gardening. 

Plant this mix in an area of your garden that gets partial shade.  Includes a mix of 15 different shade tolerant (less than 6 hours of sunlight per day) flower varieties. 

Wildflower establishment requires some important steps:

- Site selection/preparation: It's important to address competition from weeds: pull, till, or use organic herbicides. If planting in the spring/summer you can wait for weeds to germinate, control and then plant the wildflower seeds.
- Seeding:  You will want to have good seed to soil contact, broadcasting by hand is a good approach on small plot, may want to mix with an inert carrier, sand or other. Raking in and covering with soil 2-3 times seed thickness.

- Watering: During establishment for the first month, can be from rain in spring or supplement with irrigation.

- Timing: The best time to plant is in spring to early summer and even again in late fall.

    OUR PLEDGE TO YOU

    Agriculture and seeds provide the basis upon which our lives depend. We must protect this foundation as a safe and genetically stable source for future generations.

    For the benefit of all farmers, gardeners and consumers who want an alternative. We pledge to you that we do not knowingly buy or sell genetically engineered seeds or plants.  The mechanical transfer of genetic material outside of natural reproductive methods and between genera, families or kingdoms, poses great biological risks as well as economic, political, and cultural threats.

    We wish to support agricultural progress that leads to healthier soils, genetically diverse agricultural ecosystems and ultimately healthy people and communities.

    We do not buy - OR - grow any seed from large corporations that make Genetically Engineered seeds.  We don't touch that stuff and we never will.

    The seeds we offer aren't like varieties you'd typically find at a garden center. 

    Every variety we offer is 100% OP (open-pollinated).  Open-pollination means that you can safely save the seed after harvest and preserve a collection of heirloom seed for many generations to come.

    To make it perfectly clear ... Our seeds do not contain any exogenously inserted embryogenesis deactivator genes caused by human intervention.
