Flower seed mixtures

What are flower seed mixes?

A flower seed mixture is a blend of different flower varieties that together produce a balanced and long-lasting bloom. A single mixture can contain dozens of varieties, such as poppies, cornflowers, marigolds, cosmos, phacelia, and dill. Each mixture is designed with a specific goal: color, biodiversity, attracting pollinators, or creating a natural look.

Flower seed mixtures are popular with growers and wholesalers because they are efficient to cultivate and respond to current trends such as sustainable cultivation, environmentally friendly gardens, and flower-rich field margins. They offer end users an easy way to promote biodiversity while simultaneously achieving a visually appealing result.

Growing tips for flower seed mixtures

1. Sow at the right time. Depending on the mixture, sow in spring (March–May) or autumn (August–September).
2. Prepare the soil well. Loosen and weed the soil so the seeds make good contact with the soil.
3. Sow liberally. Use 1 to 3 grams per m², depending on the mixture and desired density.
4. Provide plenty of water. Keep the soil slightly moist during the germination phase.
5. Mow dry for health. Mow to a height of approximately 10 cm after flowering to encourage regrowth and promote seed dispersal.

With these tips, you can easily create a healthy, flowery, and long-lasting flowering area – perfect for sales, ornamental horticulture, or ecological projects.
