Sonoran Winter Wildflower Mix

When the winter rains come, the Sonoran Desert puts on one of the best wildflower shows in the country. This mix brings that show to your yard: a blend of desert wildflowers that sprout with the cool-season rains and bloom gold, orange, blue, and red from late winter through spring.

What sets it apart is what's in it. Many wildflower mixes sold for the desert rely on species that are only assumed to be native. Every flower in this one is a true native, chosen by a wildlife biologist to match what grows wild in the Arizona desert.

Seed Weight: 1oz

Seed Count: At least 28,000 seeds per packet

What's inside:

• Mexican gold poppy
• Brittlebush
• Desert marigold
• Desert globemallow
• Desert bluebells
• Firecracker penstemon
• Yellow monkeyflower
• Indian blanket
• Plains coreopsis
• Mexican hat
• Prairie coneflower

The annuals reseed themselves and the perennials return each year, feeding native bees, butterflies, hummingbirds, and the quail and finches that follow.

Sow October through February. Scatter on bare soil, press the seed in without burying it, and let the rain handle the rest.
