🌼 Southwest Wildflower Seed Mix for Hot, Dry, Low-Elevation Gardens

Bring rugged, living color to the toughest corners of a Southwest landscape. We formulated this wildflower seed mix for hot, dry, low-elevation plantings below 7,000 feet across Arizona, New Mexico, Utah, Southern California, and Southern Nevada, where long, hot summers ask a lot of a garden. The blend pairs fast annuals with hardy perennials, so you get bold first-year blooms and a stand that returns and deepens season after season. These are quality, US-grown seeds, non-GMO and untreated.

🌸 Expect a tapestry that runs 36 to 48 inches tall: scarlet flax and red corn poppy set against blue cornflower, blue flax, and Texas bluebonnet, with golden coreopsis, black-eyed Susan, and Indian blanket carrying the warm tones. Because the mix includes hard and dormant seed, germination is staggered, which stretches the color from spring well into the warm months. New to sowing a meadow? Our How to Grow Wildflowers from Seed guide walks you through it step by step.

🌻 Backyard beds
Scatter for a natural, meadow-style border that shrugs off heat once established.
🐝 Pollinator habitat
Nectar-rich annuals and perennials draw bees, butterflies, and other pollinators all season.
☀️ Low-water meadows
Built for drought-prone, sun-baked sites that challenge most seed blends.
🍂 Dormant fall seeding
Sow in fall in mild-winter regions and let the seed wake up with spring.

🌱 How to Plant

Prepare your site by removing weeds and loosening the soil so seed makes good contact with bare ground. Broadcast the seed evenly, then rake lightly. Cover the seed to about two to three times its thickness, or drill no more than 1/4 inch deep. Keep the soil moist until germination.

Seeding rate

1/4 lb covers 500 to 1,000 sq ft, or 5 lbs covers 10,000 to 20,000 sq ft. For a meadow look with scattered wildflowers, use the lower end. For an average display with good coverage, use the middle of the range. For a lush, almost solid stand, choose the upper end.

Best time to plant: early to late spring once soil reaches 55°F, or as a dormant fall seeding in mild-winter regions.

Safety & Responsible Use

This is a horticultural seed mix for planting and ornamental use, not for human or animal consumption. A few species in the blend, including Texas Bluebonnet (a lupine), can be harmful if eaten, so we suggest keeping the seeds and growing plants out of reach of children, pets, and grazing animals. Wash your hands after sowing, and store unused seed in a cool, dry place away from food.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which regions and elevations is this seed mix made for?

We formulated this blend for hot, dry, low-elevation landscapes below 7,000 feet, including Arizona, New Mexico, Utah, Southern California, and Southern Nevada. It is built for the long, hot, dry summers those areas are known for, so the annuals and perennials in the mix settle in and thrive where many other seed blends struggle.

Will these wildflowers bloom the first year?

Yes. We balanced this mix with fast annuals that bring bold color in the first season and hardy perennials that return and fill in over the years that follow. The hard and dormant seeds in the blend germinate on a staggered schedule, which stretches the bloom window and keeps the color coming.

How much seed do I need, and why is the seeding rate such a wide range?

Our general guideline is 1/4 lb per 500 to 1,000 square feet, or 5 lbs per 10,000 to 20,000 square feet. The range is wide because planting goals vary so much, from a small backyard bed to a five-acre meadow. For a natural meadow look with scattered wildflowers, use the lower end of the rate. For an average display with good coverage, use the middle of the range. For a lush, almost solid stand of wildflowers, choose the upper end.

Are these seeds treated or GMO, and what if I am not happy with them?

Every batch is non-GMO and untreated, selected for seed purity of 95 to 99 percent and tested for germination at 70 to 95 percent, so you know exactly what is going in the ground. That same transparency runs through our 100% money-back guarantee. Our policy is simple: if you aren't happy, send it back and receive a full refund. Anytime, for any reason.

A valuable book for non-lawyers and lawyers
Why would non-lawyers want to read a book on persuading judges? For several reasons actually. First, many of us are involved in work that requires persuading others to adopt our views. While legal argument is substantially more formal and rule-driven than what most of us do, learning how to construct a logical argument as if it were to be delivered to the court, that Is governed by deadlines, restrictions on length, the need to adhere to established fact (or to establish those facts) and to be neither groveling nor inflammatory can be applied to selling your widgets. Perhaps more important is the fact that most people don't understand the impact of the court's decisions on our daily lives, our pocketbooks and our freedoms. Nine people sit on the Supreme Court. They cannot be removed except for the most grievous crimes and then only if Congress were to agree. More than one Justice has demonstrated that you can be senile and sit on the nation's highest court. Going down the food chain, the same applies to the federal appellate and trial courts. It is unlikely that one person in a hundred can even name a local federal district court judge and probably not one in a thousand could name the nine Supreme Court justices. Yet these men and women have tremendous impact on our lives, as do the thousands of state court justices. I am not a lawyer, but I consult to them and am not a stranger to the courtroom, writing drafts for legal briefs, doing legal research and the like. I have seen a lot of judges in action and have learned, in general, to fear them. They can - and do - cause tremendous harm through ill-considered decisions, making decisions with insufficient facts, assuming they know more than they do and myriad other reasons. They are gods in their courtrooms and if your lawyer fails to persuade them of the justness of your cause, you lose. Just how do these people reach their decisions? While justice is supposed to be blind (fat chance!), the justices are human and thus persuadable. Bryan Garner is a noted writer on legal writing. He is actually quite witty as he explains the use of the English language to lawyers who have had their understanding of words driven out of them in law school. Antonin Scalia is a hero to many for the courageousness of his decisions and dissents, his belief that the Constitution is to be strictly interpreted and his generally brilliant writing style. In 115, frequently witty, short chapters the two authors (who occasionally openly disagree) lay down their thoughts on how judges can be persuaded. It is not all about legal writing; e.g, advice to not chew your fingernails and dressing appropriately for court. They advise on giving your oral argument, which a lot of sales and marketing people would do well to read, especially the guidance to "never speak over a judge". In a sales situation, I am surprised at how often the sales person displays his or her contempt for me by not only not listening to me, but presuming they understand the point I was going to make before they spoke over me. I don't know about you, but a lot of salespeople have lost business with me for doing that. Some of the points the authors make are points of contention themselves: i.e., "swear off substantive footnotes - or not". None of the material in this book is truly new. Law students get elements of it in their first year as do some college students. A lot can be found in books on to be a better salesperson: i.e., don't chew your fingernails, etc. And a lot of it is plain commonsense. But that doesn't mean this book is unhelpful. First, it reveals in tiny part how Scalia evaluates the briefs he reads and arguments he hears, which in itself is a fascinating peek. The authors also put things many people may have forgotten through lack of use into perspective. Finally, they remind lawyers and non-lawyers alike that you often have only one shot at winning your argument so you had best put your best foot forward. Scalia and Garner show you how to do it. Overall, this is a fun, informative and helpful read. Jerry

Like Having an Expert Looking over Your Shoulder
I am a law professor who spent 25 years as a Plaintiff's lawyer before deciding to teach. I've been before the U.S. Circuit Courts of Appeal many times and state appellate courts a few times. One caveat to consider: I expect to be arguing before the United States Supreme Court in the future. I hesitate to be too ebullient, lest you think that I'm trying to curry favor. However, I think that this book is great. Why do I recommend it? First, it is short. This book will accomplish much of what other books try to teach about advocacy, but in many fewer pages. Secondly, it is practical. It teaches writing skills, speaking skills, and how to be persuasive with limited time. Finally, it is not just for lawyers. Anyone trying to be persuasive can apply the same skills to other situations. For those of you who are politically opposed to Justice Scalia (which, believe it or not, includes some law professors)this is a joint effort by Garner and Scalia, and they frequently disagree. Hearing both sides of the argument on how to write or speak persuasively will help you decide how you want to present your arguments. How do my political opinions and Justice Scalia's opinions mesh? Can I be fair? I think so. He's a Federalist, I consider myself an Anti-Federalist. He as supporter of administrative delegation, I think delegation of congressional responsibilities to administrative agencies is congressional abdication. In short, I'm not recommending this book because Justice Scalia and I agree on policy, because on many policy matters we don't. I'm recommending it because I think it will help you. You wont be disappointed with the book.

Great Read
Great book, I enjoyed reading it. I am non-lawyer so I spent time having to read and re-read sentences and paragraphs but darn good book. Highly recommend it. Sometimes a person can be in discussion with an official, doctor, lawyer, cop ..whatever--it helps to remember arguments made in this book. Most folks just try to explain a situation, heaven forbid standing in front of a court or judge in a legal matter. But, this type of reading builds confidence, a strong vocabulary and so forth. It matters most trying to persuade a person or an institution..just winning, making your point in a clear coherent and cognizant way. This book can teach you these things.

You don't have to like Justice Scalia to like his book.
Perhaps an appellate brief that you wrote would have been perfect if only the judge had read it. The lesson you learned, hopefully, was that there is no guarantee that a judge will read your brief. The lesson you can learn from "Making Your Case" is how to write so that the judges will read what you wrote - preferably before your oral argument. Writing in a quite candid, lucid and entertaining style, Scalia and Garner serve up tips that even the most experienced lawyers can learn from. If you find yourself approaching the court's word limit, for example, you may be minimizing the chances of having your brief read, as judges really do favor brevity. How do you write for a court that is notoriously dismissive of higher court precedents? How do you best respond to a judge who asks whether you would be content with a remand? These and other critical questions are addressed simply yet insightfully. If your legal education stressed the IRAC approach (Issue, Rule, Application, Conclusion), Scalia and Garner take you a step further by stressing a syllogistic approach. Even if you have already been exposed to all the best ideas about persuading appellate judges, you are still likely to gain much rom reading "Making Your Case" because the authors organize all those ideas in a way that makes them much easier to remember and keep them in mind as you prepare your written and oral arguments. Justice Scalia calls his approach to legal reasoning and argument "textualism," which I understand to mean that his decisions are driven by the language of the law and of the case. My impression from reading many of his decisions is that he is often driven by ideology, so I can't quite square his book with his decisions. I also question the book's fundamental statement that the overriding objective of a brief is to make the court's job easier, as I prefer to write primarily for the purpose of winning the case. My criticisms of "Making Your Case" are miniscule compared to those thrown at it by Richard Posner. But although I find Judge Posner's decisions generally more fair than those of Justice Scalia, I prefer the clarity of Justice Scalia's writing - especially when he teams up with Bryan Garmer. Judge Posner notwithstanding, Scalia and Garner have put together a gem that is likely to prove invaluable for law students as well as for trial and appellate lawyers who are still interested in improving their game. If you fall into either category, buy this book, read it two or three times, and then keep it handy as a reference. It should help you make your case.
