How to Grow
Select a sunny to semi-shaded site remove all weeds, and lightly work the soil to a depth of 2.5 cm. Shake the container well before use then evenly distribute the mixture over the prepared seed bed. Lightly rake the seeds into the soil then tamp down or roll the seeded area. Keep the seed bed evenly watered through the 2-4 week germination period. Keep in mind that some of the perennials may not flower in their first year of growth. We define semi-shade as filtered sunlight for most of the day or 4-5 hours of direct sun sometime during the day. The carrier for the seed mix in the tube is corn meal.
