24 American Flower Collection

The American Wildflower Collection brings together 24 individually packaged native wildflowers and grasses chosen to create a more diverse, functional landscape. You'll grow familiar favorites such as Black Eyed Susan, Purple Coneflower, New England Aster, Common Milkweed, Sunflowers, Bergamot, Blazing Star, Yarrow, and Coreopsis, alongside foundational prairie species such as Little Bluestem, Indiangrass, Switchgrass, Canada Wild Rye, Purple Prairie Clover, and Ohio Spiderwort. Rather than receiving one bag of seeds mixed together in unknown proportions, you receive 24 separate seed packets. That gives you control over where each species is planted, lets you follow its individual germination requirements, and makes it much easier to understand what is emerging in your garden. Use the collection to create a pollinator garden, prairie-inspired planting, meadow, naturalized border, wildlife habitat, or a more ecologically diverse landscape around your home. Not a Wildflower Mix. A Collection of Native Species. Most wildflower products combine many types of seed into a single bag. Once they're mixed together, you have little control over which species are planted where—or even how much of each species you received. This collection is different. 24 Species. 24 Individual Packets. Every wildflower and grass is packaged separately and labeled by variety. That means you can: Match species to the right part of your property Follow variety-specific germination instructions Cold stratify species individually when needed Plant taller species behind shorter plants Separate grasses from flowering areas if desired Learn to identify each plant as it emerges Save unopened packets for another planting area or future season You're not simply sowing flowers. You're choosing the plants that will make up your habitat. Build a Garden That Supports Life Above and Below the Soil Feed Native Pollinators Asters, coneflowers, blazing star, bergamot, Joe Pye weed, vervain, coreopsis, sunflowers and other flowering species provide nectar and pollen across different parts of the growing season. Provide Important Host Plants The collection includes three milkweed species - Common, Rose/Swamp and Showy Milkweed—providing plants from the genus required by monarch butterfly caterpillars. Extend the Season Species such as asters provide valuable flowers later in the season, while coreopsis, coneflowers, milkweeds, sunflowers and other varieties help create overlapping bloom periods. Add Native Grasses Little Bluestem, Indiangrass, Switchgrass and Canada Wild Rye add structure, cover and year-round habitat while developing extensive root systems below ground. Feed Birds & Wildlife Let selected flowers and grasses stand after flowering and their seed heads, stems and foliage can continue contributing food, cover and overwintering habitat. Build Long-Term Soil Resilience Prairie plants invest heavily below ground. Deep and fibrous root systems help stabilize soil, add organic matter and create landscapes that become increasingly resilient as they mature. One Collection. Many Ways to Bring Native Plants Home. Pollinator Gardens Create concentrated areas of nectar, pollen and host plants. Prairie & Meadow Gardens Combine wildflowers with native grasses for a more natural plant community. Naturalized Borders Replace conventional ornamental areas with plants that offer habitat as well as beauty.
