Flower seeds

Sprinkled and scratched them into the ground a few weeks ago and they are already sprouting!

uniquely beautiful

Planted in central Phoenix late July 2023 in the road verge (narrow strip of land between sidewalk and street) on west side of home. I broke up the dirt a bit and mixed seeds with sand for easier sowing. I used 1 large packet to cover about 80 sq. feet.

First sprouts started to appear three weeks after sowing, blooms followed 3 weeks later and continue to bloom now in mid September. Plants stretch out about 2 feet across and they grow relatively close to the ground--not bushy more like a ground cover. Good germination but I believe more plants/flowers would have emerged if I watered daily. With recent monsoon rains, I see new sprouts popping up. Flowers vary from pure orange to pastel orange with an almost pinkish center (remind me of mini hibiscus).

I am grateful for these lovely flowers after the intense summer we've had. I am also grateful for Native Seeds SEARCH for offering them and other gifts from the desert. Gracias!
