Roll out a cheerful welcome mat for bees, butterflies, and other garden visitors! ‘Early Blooming Beekeeper’s Mix’ brings together annual and perennial flowers chosen to start the season with color and carry the display into summer. Scatter it through a sunny border, create a dedicated pollinator patch, or sow it in an open area for a relaxed, meadow-inspired tapestry of blooms.
This easygoing mix naturally produces flowers with a variety of colors, heights, and bloom times, creating an ever-changing display as the season unfolds. For best flowering, plant in full sun in a finely prepared, weed-free seedbed. Keep the soil evenly moist while the seeds germinate and become established.
