Best for zone 3-9 these seeds can be planted from in fall before your first hard freeze to spring after your last frost, as long as your soil is not covered in snow and workable. If sowing in late winter/early spring it's best to wait until after your last frost. Work enriched garden soil 6" deep and spread via a shaker where you can mix your packet of seeds and one cup of dry sand (this prevents clumping your flower together). Depending on if you want a dense floral look 2000 seeds will cover 100 square feet, or if you want a breezy country meadow look they will spread to 1000 square feet. These require light to germinate so spread and cover with a light dusting of peat to keep the birds away, or you can use a light covering of straw.
