Planting Instructions
Bare soil vs. overseeding matters — but both are possible.
Pollinator Paradise Native Mix can be planted into prepared bare soil or overseeded into an existing lawn or open landscape. The best approach depends on your site conditions, competition level, and timeline.
Bare Soil Planting
- Provides the most uniform and predictable wildflower establishment
- Ideal for garden beds, lawn removals, borders, and restoration areas
- Remove existing vegetation and loosen the top 1–2 inches of soil
- Broadcast seed evenly and press into the soil surface — do not bury
Overseeding
- Allows landscapes to transition naturally over time
- Works best in thin lawns, open soil patches, or low-competition areas
- Seed-to-soil contact is essential — rake lightly or mow existing growth low before seeding
- Establishment may be slower but integrates well with existing soil biology
Timing & Establishment
- Fall planting is preferred, allowing natural cold stratification for many native wildflowers
- Spring planting is also successful, though some species may emerge later in the season
- Keep soil lightly moist during early establishment, then gradually reduce watering
What to Expect
- Germination is staggered — some species appear quickly, others take weeks or months
- Annuals often bloom in the first year; perennials focus on root development
- Flowering increases significantly in year two and beyond
