SOW IN FALL FOR SPRING BLOOMS

Texas Forever

Wildflower Mix

  • The Texas Forever Wildflower Mix includes: Black-Eyed Susan, Clasping Leaf Coneflower, Greenthread, Evening Primrose, Fire Wheel, Lanceleaf Coreopsis, Lemon Mint, Mexican Hat, Plains Coreopsis, Purple Coneflower, Scarlet Sage & Texas Bluebonnet

  • The resealable eco-kraft pouch features JMJ’s original illustrations. It measures 4x6” and is filled with 1/2 oz. of seeds. The pouch sows 350 square feet. Sow in autumn for spring blooms, except in Grow Zones 1-6, where you should sow in early spring.

  • Broadcast seeds over a weeded area in full sun and rake them in. For best results, keep the soil surface moist until seeds germinate, and then water occasionally until plants are established. Soil can be poor but must have good drainage.

WILDFLOWER ALERT

FALL-PLANTED FLOWERS

Don’t miss the planting window for flowers like wildflowers & poppies that require cold stratification to germinate. Plant in fall for spring flowers.

JMJ IN THE NEWS


“Gardening brought her joy, and it enabled her to turn a negative situation into a positive one. By sharing that experience with others, she’s paying that positivity forward. Life may have given her lemons, but she is growing an “orchard” of other gardeners from the seeds she saved.”

Texas Gardener, September-October 2023. Jennymarie Jemison and her Joy Max Jardín.

“Jennymarie Jemison's garden is the joy of her friends, family, and thousands of Instagram followers. Luckily for those who prefer their flora to be edible, the constant gardener sells packets of her heirloom "Salad Days" seed collection – with ruby red lettuce leaf and slow bolt arugula and more – along with bull's blood beets and red-veined sorrel and, oh, see for yourself, green-thumbed citizen!”

Austin Chronicle, “Five Food Gifts to Help Smash the Patriarchy: Excellent comestibles from women-owned Austin businesses”

“Gardening has been one of my greatest joys in the almost 20 years I’ve lived in this town, and in those two decades, I learned how to do it without that much effort. It’s what I call the Joy Max Method, a fusion of no-till gardening, companion planting, and incorporation of native plants and seeds that do well in our increasingly challenging climate…”
