In the garden, "Wildflower Mix" requires a location adapted to its development. Keep a label to recognize the selection after emergence. Space young plants according to their development and observe the first flowers to adjust their place in the bed. Organize planting considering adult height to keep each plant visible and accessible. Repeat a few groups rather than dispersing all seedlings over a large area. Different seasonal blooms help extend the bed's interest. If you wish to cut stems, leave some of the flowers in the garden and use a clean tool.

Sowing guide

It all startswith a seed.

Growing method

The 'Birds and Butterflies' mix brings together annual and perennial flowers. The species develop at different rates, so the result evolves between the first season and subsequent ones. Start cultivating the "Wildflower Mix" in a prepared space for seedlings. Keep a label to identify the selection after germination. Space the young plants according to their development and observe the first flowers to adjust their place in the bed. Prepare the seedlings according to the needs of the species, in a draining substrate and with sufficient light after germination. Plants grown indoors must be acclimatized before being placed outdoors. Choose a location corresponding to the recommended exposure and allow sufficient space for foliage development. At the beginning of the season, prepare the equipment and check the soil condition before setting your schedule. Adapt interventions to the plant stage rather than a rigid date. After germination, ensure sufficient light and space out the seedlings to avoid excessive competition. Gradually acclimatize plants intended for outdoor use. During growth, observe the foliage, humidity, and the possible appearance of pests.

Soil and care

The right care,at the right time.

Watering

Regular

Soil type

Wildflower Mix: Keep a label to identify the selection after emergence. Space out the young plants according to their development and observe the first flowers to adjust their place in the bed. Use a soil or substrate that allows excess water to drain while retaining the necessary moisture for the roots. Work the soil when it is dry enough to avoid compacting it. Remove weeds before planting and adjust organic matter contributions to the crop.

Fertilization

Base fertilization on soil fertility, the substrate used, and observed growth. Respect the dosages indicated on the chosen product; increasing applications does not guarantee a better result. An already enriched potting soil does not require the same interventions as a poor substrate. Avoid placing concentrated fertilizer against seeds or fragile roots. Water according to the manufacturer's instructions and reduce applications when growth slows down.

Seasonal care

The ‘Birds and Butterflies’ mix combines annual and perennial flowers. The species develop at different rates; the result therefore evolves between the first season and subsequent ones. At the beginning of the season, prepare your equipment and check the soil condition before setting your schedule. Adapt interventions to the plant’s stage rather than to a rigid date. After germination, ensure sufficient light and space out seedlings to avoid excessive competition. Gradually acclimatize plants intended for outdoor use. During growth, observe the foliage, humidity, and the possible appearance of pests. Identify the problem before choosing an intervention. Remove debris that hinders ventilation, keep pathways accessible, and reassess watering after rain. Note sowing dates and key results. At the end of the cycle, clean tools and store remaining packets in a dry, cool place. These observations will allow you to adjust future sowings more precisely to your location. Prepare seedlings according to the species’ needs, in a well-draining substrate and with sufficient light after germination. Plants grown indoors must be acclimatized before being transplanted outdoors. Choose a location corresponding to the recommended exposure and allow sufficient space for foliage development. Water to facilitate rooting, then adapt water inputs to soil moisture.

Container growing

A garden,within reach.

Keep a label to identify the selection after lifting. Space out young plants according to their development and observe the first flowers to adjust their place in the bed. The 'Birds and Butterflies' mix combines annual and perennial flowers. Species develop at different rates; the result therefore evolves between the first season and subsequent ones. Install the container in its final location before filling it. Choose a pot that is perforated, stable, and large enough for root development; a simple closed cachepot does not allow water to drain. Use potting soil for containers rather than compact garden soil. Moisten the substrate before sowing or planting, without saturating it. Leave a free border to facilitate watering and maintain space between plants. Regularly check moisture with your finger, as the surface may dry while the bottom remains moist. Water slowly until water comes out through the holes, then empty the saucer. During hot weather, check pots more often. Fertilize according to crop needs and the indications of the chosen product. Roots have a limited volume: container growing therefore requires different monitoring than growing in the ground. Position any supports during installation. Keep easy access to inspect leaves, remove damaged parts, and harvest without pulling on stems. At the end of the cycle, remove debris and clean equipment before new use.

Garden associations

In goodcompany.

Companion plants

Organize neighboring crops according to their light requirements, height, and space occupied at maturity. Prevent tall plants from casting permanent shadows on shorter ones or blocking access for watering. Successive crops can use the same space if the first is harvested before the next expands. Flowers diversify the garden, but an association does not guarantee the absence of pests. Leave enough air between plants and observe interactions on site. Use associations as an organizational tool, without attributing automatic protection against diseases to them.
