How to Grow Cornfield Annual Wildflower Mix Seeds

Cornfield Annual Wildflower Mix Seeds can be sown directly outdoors during spring or autumn.

Prepare the area by removing existing weeds and unwanted vegetation to reduce competition with the emerging wildflower seedlings.

Sow approximately 2g per square metre, distributing the seed as evenly as possible across the prepared area.

The mixture will typically begin flowering approximately three months after sowing, depending on growing conditions and sowing time.

Allow some flowers to mature and set seed naturally if you would like the mixture to regenerate in subsequent seasons.

As the flowers self-seed, the area will need occasional weeding and thinning to maintain a balanced mixture and prevent individual species from becoming dominant.
