In cooler climates, plant from spring to early summer. In warmer climates, plant from fall to spring. Select a partial to full sun spot receiving three to six hours of sun daily. Consider adding light compost or topsoil to the site to provide seed-to-soil contact for germination, especially if sowing into an existing grass lawn. Sow seeds at the recommended rate and gently rake them for good seed-to-soil contact. Keep soil consistently moist until seeds sprout. In hot weather, water daily. Expect a period of establishment that can last from one to three growing seasons. Allow plants to flower and reseed to maintain the lawn and support pollinators. Enjoy a diverse, colorful lawn that supports pollinators. Less water, fertilizer, and maintenance are required compared to traditional lawns.
