    We planted 1.5 acres with this mix and it turned out absolutely beautiful! We added butterfly wings for photo ops and the public has loved it.

    These are so pretty! I hope some of them come back up again in the spring. I will definitely buy more of this mix.

    Customer photo review of Bird & Butterfly Wildflower Seed Mix

    I love this mix!!! I planted these seeds beside my driveway along with zinnia seeds, and they look amazing. I’ve only found 6 different varieties so far that have bloomed, and I’m excited to see if more decide to pop up

    Broadcast seeds over a recently burned over wastage area of about 15' X 40' before the winter rains arrived in earnest and didn't really expect much for the first year. Boy, was I wrong. The area has filled in beautifully with about 50% coverage. Pedestrians have remarked how great it looks and it is busy with insects and hummingbirds (my main goal). I expect it to fill in next year and become a dependable resource for native pollinators and hummers.

    I planted the Bird and Butterfly Wildflower Seed Mix in my backyard. It is now alive with green, blue, purple, and yellow flowers. With all the plants for protection from the elements, I have a few cats enjoying the privacy for having their kittens, chasing butterflies, and squirrels. So peaceful. I will let it reseed for next year.

    I am so pleased with your wildflower seeds. I had a lot of hills to mow, now they are filled with amazing beauty , which everyone who sees them get to enjoy the splendor. As well as butterfly's and honeybees.

    I planted these along the length of my house with a western exposure in NE Florida. This is an area where weeds like to grow and the grass gets rather soggy under the eaves. I was so happy with the first blooms. One of these plants grew to 7 ft tall. But the bulk of them were 3-4 ft tall and some smaller varieties that were close to the ground. I loved it and so did the bees and butterflies. I can't wait to see what perennials bloom next year.

    I bought seeds a couple years ago right before i lost my leg so they sat in a cupboard for a year. I really didn't expect to get as much as one plant. I have a drainage ditch in my back yard that has a bunch of cattail that i actually like and now there is 3 feet of wild flower before it. Who says you can't make a drainage ditch beautiful...

    I bought these seeds excellent have been buying seeds from eden brothers for a couple of years. Never got bad seeds.
