I was lucky enough to be gifted with some native wildflower seeds by a generous DG'er, who lives in NC, and thought they were better suited to a CA garden. I'm excited about planting them as these are natives that I've admired & have on my "want" list. The mix contains:
I'm looking for some guidance about planting them. I'm assuming they will fit into my newly planted xeriscape garden, which consists (mostly) of ornamental grasses, penstemon, agastache & salvia. Can I plant them this time of year or should I wait until next fall? And assuming we don't have rain, how often would I need to water them? Can I just mix them w/ sand or dirt & broadcast them into the garden or do I need to bury them? Any other words or wisdom would be most welcome...
Thanks!
