Flowers for you, seeds for the birds. Flowers feed our souls. But they also feed many other creatures: they provide nectar to bees, and their seedheads yield food for our avian relatives. This mix of annuals should not be deadheaded; the seed heads produced after the flowers fade are a buffet for birds of all kinds, an array of sustaining flavors and textures that beckon them from the perimeter of your garden. Their swoops and dives as they harvest are a dance of thanks for your generosity. Gardening as a hobby? It's for the birds, literally! Art by the Foliage Library for Hudson Valley Seeds.

Direct sow in early spring after last frost date. Broadcast evenly into a well prepared, weed-free bed. Packet covers an area approximately 30'x30' in size. Rake in lightly, and keep watered until germination. When seedlings set true leaves, thin to 12-18" apart. This mix contains a combination of perennials and self-sowing annuals. Some varieties will bloom the first year; the full mix will appear in the second year.

Contains Dwarf Sunflower, Partridge Pea, Phlox, Blue Flax, Gayfeather, Shasta Daisy, Prairie Coneflower, and Black-Eyed Susan.
