Pick the right time to sow
Cold-winter zones: Sow in spring after frost or fall after a hard freeze.
Warm-winter zones: Winter-sow in January–February before rains.
Soil temp should be 55–70°F for germination.
Prep your planting area
Remove weeds and grasses, then lightly rake or loosen the top 1–2" of soil. Avoid deep tilling.Mix & spread seeds evenly
Blend seeds with 4–8 parts dry sand for even coverage. Broadcast half east–west, half north–south. Avoid overseeding — wildflowers need space to thrive.Press seeds into soil (don’t cover!)
Walk over small areas or press down with cardboard to ensure good seed-to-soil contact. Wildflower seeds need light to germinate.Water & wait
Keep soil consistently moist until seedlings reach 4–6" tall, then water weekly if rainfall is low.Annuals bloom the first year.
Perennials return and bloom in years 2–3.
