American Meadows Ohio Select Wildflower Seed Mix

While this mix is curated specifically for Ohio's climate, it is suitable for USDA Hardiness Zones 2 through 7. If you live in a region with similar humid summers and cold winters, it will likely perform well, but we recommend checking your local zone before planting.

Because this mix includes a blend of annuals and perennials, you will see quick results. The annuals typically bloom in their first season to provide immediate color, while the perennials will establish themselves and return in subsequent years.

This mix is designed for full sun to partial sun exposure. While it can handle some shade, you will get the best bloom density and plant health if the area receives at least six hours of direct sunlight daily.

Wildflowers are generally low-maintenance, but they establish best on bare soil. Clear the area of existing grass and weeds, lightly rake the soil surface to create good seed-to-soil contact, and ensure the area is well-drained.

Both seasons are effective. Spring planting is ideal once the danger of frost has passed, while fall planting allows the seeds to settle in and germinate naturally when the soil warms up the following spring.
