Southwest Wildflower Seed Mix
Our Southwest Wildflower Seed Mix is a real eye catcher designed for the arid deserts of the southwest. This wildflower mixture is a combination of annuals and perennials that keep on giving. The perennials will grow back from the root-clump year after year, and the annuals are prolific seed producers and will re-seed themselves annually.
It is formulated for the following geographic areas below 7,000′ elevation:
• Arizona, New Mexico & West Texas
