Wildflower Shade Seed Mix
If you have a lot of trees around your property, or if your yard doesn't get much sun, that doesn't mean you can't turn your containers or yard into a canvas of attractive, pollinator-attracting wildflowers. This is all seed and no fillers. This mix of seeds includes Baby’s Breath, Baby Blue-Eyes, Candytuft, Chinese Forget-Me-Not, Chinese Houses, Clarkia, Columbine, Corn Poppy, Forget-Me-Not, Johnny Jump-Up, Lance-Leaved Coreopsis, Monkeyflower, Purple Coneflower, Rocket Larkspur, Shasta Daisy, Spurred Snapdragon, Sweet William Pinks and Tussock Bellflower.
This symphony of colorful flowers is optimized for shade space. You will only need 1-4 hours of filtered sunlight. No full sunshine, just natural light that shines in between your trees, or if you have containers under an awning or pergola, etc. These varieties are found in shaded meadows under the protection of trees. They are easy to grow, and several of the varieties are great for flower arrangements. The coneflower is great for making natural dyes, the snapdragon is edible, etc. All the different varieties have valuable traits besides bringing beauty to your yard.
The varieties all mature at different times but you have a couple of options. You can sprinkle your seed down in late Autumn and wait for them to germinate the following Spring, or you can sprinkle them into the ground as soon as you get them before/during Spring. Planting them any later may not give the flowers enough time to bloom and blossom, and if they do, you will have a shorter amount of time to enjoy them.

Meet the Maker
Welcome to Blue Pumpkin Seed Co.! My lifelong love of gardening, especially pumpkins, led me to create this company.
We started as a small family business on Etsy in 2020, sharing our passion for heirloom seeds. Over time, I took charge to ensure this labor of love would flourish. I'm thrilled to now offer you a carefully curated selection of seeds directly.
The wonder of watching a seed grow continues to inspire me. As a fellow gardener, I share the same excitement and joy for gardening as our customers do.
