Short Meadow
:
The Short
Meadow
Flower Mix
exhibits a
rainbow of
color
starting in
the spring
and
continuing
until fall.
This mix of
twenty-two
annuals and
perennials,
none more
than 24
inches tall,
is ideal for
naturalizing
sunny open
areas,
slopes, long
borders,
parking
strips and
cottage
style
gardens. Do
you long for
the look of
a wildflower
meadow, but
need to
plant
something
with a
slightly
manicured
appearance?
Short Meadow
is just
that, a
collection
of
low-growing,
hardy,
adaptable
flowering
plants that
will
transform
any sunny
area where
height is a
factor. Some
of the
varieties
included
are, Baby
Blue Eyes,
Blue
Pimpernel,
California
Blue Bell,
California
Poppy, Daisy
African,
Poppy
Iceland,
Verbena
Moss, and
Wallflower
Siberian.
In cool
climates
plant in the
spring, 1 to
2 weeks
before the
last average
frost date.
In mild
climates,
sow seed
during
cooler
months,
generally
October
through
March. Soil
must be kept
moist while
the seeds
are
germinating
and
beginning to
grow. Be
sure to keep
the weeds
pulled so
they do not
compete with
the flowers
for water
and sun.
