This carefully curated mix contains a variety of mostly perennial flowers, with a selection of self-seeding annuals to provide early-season color. It’s designed to thrive in a wide range of garden settings and offers a stunning spectrum of blooms that can last well into the late blooming season.
To prolong the display of vibrant color, consider staggering your planting over several weeks. This encourages continuous waves of fresh blooms throughout the growing season.

Water: Regular watering during establishment and dry periods
Perennial vs. Annual Growth – What to Expect
Perennials typically do not bloom the first year. Instead, they focus on establishing strong root systems and foliage. You can expect full blooms starting in the second year, with continued flowering in the years that follow. This longer development cycle is also why perennial seeds are often more expensive—they take twice as long to mature and produce viable seed.
To ensure you see color in the first growing season, we’ve included annual varieties known to readily reseed themselves, providing early blooms and the potential to return year after year under the right conditions.
Special Note for Fall Planting in the Northwest
For the best results in the Pacific Northwest, we recommend starting your fall planting in August. Be sure to water the seeds regularly to help them germinate and become established before winter. Well-rooted young plants are more likely to survive cold conditions and thrive the following spring.
