Care & Maintenance
Wildflower seeds should be sown directly into prepared, well-drained soil during optimal planting times—spring to early summer or late fall. Keep soil consistently moist during the first month to support germination. Once established, lupines require minimal watering and benefit from natural rainfall. The seeds do not require any chemical treatments, and the plants generally need minimal pruning or care beyond natural maintenance. For best results, protect young seedlings from heavy foot traffic or disturbance during early growth stages.
Wildflower establishment requires some important steps:
- Site selection/preparation: It's important to address competition from weeds: pull, till, or use organic herbicides. If planting in the spring/summer you can wait for weeds to germinate, control and then plant the wildflower seeds.
- Seeding: You will want to have good seed to soil contact, broadcasting by hand is a good approach on small plot, may want to mix with an inert carrier, sand or other. Raking in and covering with soil 2-3 times seed thickness.
- Watering: During establishment for the first month, can be from rain in spring or supplement with irrigation.
- Timing: The best time to plant is in spring to early summer and even again in late fall.
