  Plant this fall for glorious wildflower meadows and beds next year
California Brilliant Native Wildflower Mix
 
   

Next spring you could be looking at a meadow of brilliant California wildflowers.



In your summer garden you could push your way down a path lined with waist-high Black-eyed Susans or Bee Balm.

This isn’t a garden fantasy, it’s what can happen when you plant wildflowers this fall.



Add a sweep of Purple coneflowers (Echinacea) to a dry, hot spot.



Attract endangered Checkerspot Butterflies with low mounds of sunny Tidy Tips.



Celebrate California by planting the state flower, the California Poppy, where you can watch it all spring.

Wildflowers don’t ask for much, just some poor soil and a little water. Find out how to plant them in our new video and blog post. Then go treat yourself. These natural beauties can be yours for pennies.

Your videos and blogs are informative and to the point. Thanks very much.  I’ve been getting my gardening stuff from PVFS for many years. Visit my blog at www.EdibleLandscapingMadeEasy.com.  I’ve been gardening for 40 years and have some tips to share also.
