Classic fall colors like brilliant yellows and cool lavenders, purples, and blues. This combination of plants provides a bountiful browsing board for pollinators, birds, and wildlife to help prepare them for winter. Many of these natives are considered keystone species and are vitally important for supporting entire food webs.
The Fall Blooms Collection includes 6 species, 1 seed packet of each:
Stiff Gentian (Gentianella quinquefolia) - 400 seeds
Western Sunflower (Helianthus occidentalis) - 100 seeds
Button Blazing Star (Liatris aspera) - 100 seeds
Brown-eyed Susan (Rudbeckia triloba) - 750 seeds
Showy Goldenrod (Solidago speciosa) - 1,000 seeds
Smooth Blue Aster (Symphyotrichum laeve) - 750 seeds
For a naturalized look, combine all seed packets to cover approximately 40-45 sq ft. Surface sow outdoors on a weed-free site in late fall. Mow the first growing season. Expect first blooms in year 2 or 3. Alternatively, sow seed in rows in a garden setting in late fall. In spring, thin seedlings and weed as expected with vegetable gardening. Transplant to permanent locations that fall or the following spring.
