Helpful Hints on Growing WildflowersLike any seeds, wildflowers need moisture to germinate, and the water- conscious gardener can take advantage of the fall rains or can plant in spring and supply the water himself. The seeds will germinate and make good growth during the rainy winter and explode into bloom when the sun comes out in the spring. Our Notes on Growing California Wildflowers gives additional information. Coverage Rates By WeightThese are approximations only. Applications will vary depending on slope and soil and weather conditions. In our experience, it is not necessary to thin wildflowers once they have germinated. Seed that is not used when purchased will remain viable, with little change in germination rates, for up to three years, if it is kept in a cool, dry location.
