For gardeners who want a floral dreamscape that evolves and blooms with little more than a sprinkle of seeds and a bit of care, wildflower mixes work for everything you need them to work for.
Beautiful, effortless, and returning season after season, planting one of our wildflower mixes will bring that alchemy of small initial effort that results in a fireworks show of blooms you desire.
This guide will help you select the right mix for your growing zone and leave you wonderstruck by an awe-inspiring array of options rarely available to home gardeners. Let’s take a closer look.
How do I choose the right wildflower mix?
SUNSHINE
Sunshine on our flowers makes us happy, but the intense sun is not ideal for all wildflowers.
Wild meadows are full of tough but tender varieties that can survive and thrive in the summer sun's baking heat. However, some blooms prefer shadier spots, mimicking what you might find on a woodland hike.
Since most of our mixes are curated for areas that receive six or more hours of sunlight daily, for your convenience, here’s the shorter list of those designed to grow in shadier conditions:
- All-Purpose Sun-Shade Wildflower Seed Mix
- Blue Wildflower Seed Mix
- Cool Colors Flower Seed Mix
- EcoEase Microclover and Fescue Wildflower Seed Mix
- Shade Flower Seed Mix
RAINFALL
The wonderful thing about wildflowers is that once established, most survive just fine on rainfall alone. However, if you live in a drought-prone or arid region, you might wonder if there’s a mix for you.
- Dry Climate Wildflower Seed Mix
- Hot, Dry Annual Wildflower Mix
- Mediterranean Wildflower Seed Mix
- Southwest Wildflower Seed Mix
ELEVATION
Gardens at higher elevations need unique selections of varieties to produce the best results. So, if you’re lucky enough to live amongst the rugged beauty of mountainous terrain at an elevation above 7,000 feet, our Rocky Mountain Wildflower Seed Mix could be a wise choice.
Where you live counts
Where you live and garden plays a crucial role. Let’s explore this in more detail below.

Is it a blooming lawn you’re seeking?
Did you know you can have a mowable lawn with flowers (that aren’t weeds) growing in it? It’s true! With our alternative lawn mixes, you can discover the beauty and benefits of flowering grass alternatives.
Take a peek at:
- EcoEase Microclover and Fescue Wildflower Seed Mix
- Flowering Grass Alternative Wildflower Seed Mix
Both mixes are an attractive blend of fine fescue, flowers, and clovers, providing a sustainable alternative to traditional grass lawns.
These flowering lawns support pollinators, require less water and fertilizer, and demand minimal maintenance. They’re also easy to sow into existing lawns—so why not diversify your lawn and enjoy a practical, gorgeous transformation?
How do I make the most of bulk wildflower seed bags?
Think bulk seed bagss are too much for your garden?
Think again! Bulk seeds are economical, practical, and perfect for covering large areas.
Even if you don’t have a big space, they can be stored for multiple seasons when kept cool and dry, giving you planting flexibility to sow some now and keep the rest for later.
Alternatively, split a packet with a gardening friend—it’s a fun way to reduce costs and share the joy of wildflowers.
Create your own colorful oasis.
