Provide forage for bees in your growing area with these beautiful Bee Garden Blend wildflower seeds in a convenient sprinkle bag. Bees and flowering plants evolved together millions of years ago. We could not have one without the other. Bees face many challenges in this age of global weather change. The simple act of growing plants that bees and other pollinators love to forage on is critically important to their survival. The Bee Garden Blend wildflower seeds are specially blended by our Certified Bee Master for use in managed landscapes such as disused laneways; verges; or along the edges of cultivated areas in residential or agricultural properties.
This blend is packaged in a re-sealable bag containing 25g of our Pacific Hummingbird Blend, plus fine vermiculite to provide even spreading.
Packet net wt. 125g covers approx. 16m² (180 square feet)
West Coast Seeds Bee Garden - Sprinkly Bag Wildflowers Seeds, Per Package
Starting
Site Selection: If there are already no plants (including weeds) growing in the planting site, there may be a problem with the soil. Possible issues may be soil fertility, lack of drainage, or the need for soil amendments to improve texture. In such spots (eg, beneath a cedar tree), few plants will thrive, including wildflowers.
Timing
Try to direct sow wildflower seeds during the period two weeks before, and eight weeks after, your last average frost date. Sowing when there is some risk of minor frost may improve germination. Wildflower seeds can also be sown in the autumn, but a certain percentage of seeds to may be lost to water, birds, and animals. To make the most of the annual species, direct sow in early spring.
