Wildflower Bee Feed Mix brings together annual and perennial flowers intended to provide nectar and pollen resources for visiting wild bees, honey bees and other pollinating insects. This packet contains 500 non-GMO, heirloom seeds for a varied ornamental planting in prepared garden beds, borders and other managed spaces.

Enjoy a changing display of flower colors and forms as different plants develop. The blend includes species with different flowering patterns, offering the potential for blooms at different times rather than a single synchronized crop. Local weather, sowing date, soil and care determine the display; uninterrupted nectar and pollen availability cannot be guaranteed.

A flowering patch can be a useful part of a bee-friendly garden, but it is not a complete habitat or a guarantee of colony health. Combine flowers with other locally suitable plantings and thoughtful management. Observing which plants thrive and which insects visit can help you refine your garden from season to season.

This blend includes plants from different regions and is not an all-native restoration mix. Check local suitability before sowing near natural areas, and manage unwanted reseeding. Packet proportions and the plants that establish vary, so equal numbers of every included species are not guaranteed.

Germination Rate: 71%. Test Date: 04/25. AWSC.

Planting Tips for Success

• Site: Choose a sunny, well-drained garden space and assess local suitability for the included species.
• Preparation: Remove competing weeds and grasses before sowing. A clean seedbed is more suitable than established turf.
• Timing: Follow packet instructions and local planting guidance. Germination and seasonal requirements differ among species.
• Sowing: Follow packet coverage and depth recommendations. Spread evenly and ensure appropriate seed-to-soil contact without burying small seed deeply.
• Establishment: Keep the seedbed appropriately moist without saturating it. Different species may emerge at different times.
• Spacing: Thin crowded seedlings where needed and allow room for mature growth.
• Watering: Adjust to soil, rainfall and heat rather than assuming all established plants have identical water needs.
• Fertilizing: Base amendments on soil needs and fertilizer-label directions. Avoid heavy, unnecessary feeding.
• Support: Taller plants may need support in exposed beds; the mix has varied growth habits.
• Pollinator care: Avoid unnecessary insecticide use around flowering plants and follow product-label precautions.
• Maintenance: Learn to identify seedlings, manage weeds carefully and allow selected seed heads to mature only where reseeding is wanted.
