Imagine your backyard filled with wonderful wildflowers, bees buzzing in and out, butterflies stopping by to enjoy the abundance of colors. Seedles make this possible. Each Seedle contains a variety of non-invasive wildflowers that are native to the region you live in (see species list below). All seeds are native and non-gmo. This traditional method for sowing valuable seeds in balls of clay protects seeds from hungry birds and increases your flowers' success. It's a carefree gift for a lazy gardener, or a fun way to green your brown thumb. Use seedles to seed bomb a nearby vacant patch, or brighten your garden box or indoor pots. They make growing wildflowers and helping bring back the bees easy peasy pumpkin pie.
Let us take the guess work out of choosing the right native wildflower seeds for you. Just locate the region you will be planting them in from the map below and then select that region in the dropdown menu above to purchase. Have a question?, just contact us and we'll be glad to help.
(see below for a listing of flower varieties for each region)
Q: Do I really just throw them on the ground?
A: In short, yes.
The optimum planting time depends upon your climate and average rainfall. In areas with colder winters, spring or early summer seeding is best. Spring plantings should be done as soon as the planting area can be worked, but after the last frost. Early summer plantings should only be done if rainfall patterns are anticipated or supplemental irrigation is available. We recommend you plant when temperatures are on average 65* F or above during the 2-3 week germination period.
“Dormant” seeding can be done in late fall when temperatures are low enough that the seeds will not germinate until weather warms the following spring. In mild climates, plant fall through spring, to take advantage of winter rainfall. A fall planting allows the plants to develop and provide an earlier display of flowers in the spring. If planted in spring, make certain rainfall is expected; otherwise, supplemental irrigation will need to be supplied. It's recommended to clear the area of weeds/grasses so the wildflowers can get a head start.
Q: How many do I need for my space?
A: Each of our seed balls contains between 10 and 25 wildflower seeds depending on the flower variety and their germination rate. Each Seedle can cover up to 1 square foot of space, but for a denser look of flower place 3-4 per square foot.
Q: How Big Are They?
A: Each Seedle is the size of a nickel, some are slightly smaller, some bigger.
Q: How many seeds are on each ball?
A: Each of our seed balls contains between 10 and 25 wildflower seeds depending on the flower variety and their germination rate.
Q: Which varieties of flowers are there?
A: We take the guess work out of the equation for you. We select annual and perennial native flowers that work in your bioregion based on the address you ask us to ship to. If you have an alternative destination in mind, let us know, we can make a blend for that location too!
