🏔️ Rocky Mountain Wildflower Seed Mix for High Elevations

Bring resilient, high-country color to a mountain landscape. We blended this wildflower seed mix from native and adaptive species curated to flourish at 6,000 feet and above, across Western mountain climates like Colorado, Utah, Arizona, and Montana. It is built for the dry, rocky, well-drained soils those elevations are known for, pairing fast annuals with long-lived perennials so the planting carries continuous color from late spring to first frost. These are quality, US-grown seeds, non-GMO, pesticide-free, and never coated with synthetic chemicals.

🌸 Expect a layered display that reaches 36 to 48 inches tall: Giant Mix Columbine and Rocky Mountain Penstemon alongside golden blanketflower, glowing California poppy, and sky-blue flax and cornflower, with Shasta and African daisies, fleabane, black-eyed Susan, and crisp white baby's breath and sweet alyssum filling in throughout. With roughly 45 percent annuals for first-season color and 55 percent biennials and perennials for staying power, the mix gets more beautiful every year and shrugs off summer dry spells once established. New to sowing a meadow? Our How to Grow Wildflowers from Seed guide walks you through it step by step.

🌱 How to Plant

Loosen the top 1/4 inch of soil so seed makes good contact with bare ground. Broadcast the seed evenly, rake lightly to cover, tamp it down, and water gently. Keep the soil moist until germination. Once established, these high-altitude wildflowers tolerate summer dry spells.

Seeding rate

1/4 lb covers 500 to 1,000 sq ft, 1 lb covers 2,000 to 4,000 sq ft, or 5 lbs covers 10,000 to 20,000 sq ft. Use the lower end of the range for a natural meadow look, and the upper end for a fuller, denser stand.

Best time to plant: dormant sow in fall before snowfall, which gives the seed natural stratification over winter, or sow in early spring after snowmelt for quicker first-season blooms.

Safety & Responsible Use

This is a horticultural seed mix for planting and ornamental use, not for human or animal consumption. One species in the blend, Rocket Larkspur (Delphinium ajacis), can be harmful if eaten, so we suggest keeping the seeds and growing plants out of reach of children, pets, and grazing animals. Wash your hands after sowing, and store unused seed in a cool, dry place away from food.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which elevations and regions is this seed mix made for?

We designed this mix for high-elevation Western mountain gardens at 6,000 feet and above, including Colorado, Arizona, Utah, Montana, and similar regions. The species are chosen to flourish in the dry, rocky, well-drained soils typical of the mountains, with minimal irrigation once they are established.

Will these wildflowers bloom the first year?

Yes. About 45 percent of the mix is fast annuals, so you get colorful blooms in the very first season. The remaining 55 percent is biennials and perennials that return and spread over the years that follow, so the planting grows more beautiful over time and carries continuous color from late spring to first frost.

When should I plant, and how much seed do I need?

For best results, dormant sow in fall before snowfall, which gives the seed natural stratification over winter, or sow in early spring after snowmelt for quicker first-season blooms. For coverage, 1/4 lb covers 500 to 1,000 square feet, 1 lb covers 2,000 to 4,000 square feet, and 5 lbs covers 10,000 to 20,000 square feet. Use the lower end of the rate for a natural meadow look and the upper end for a fuller, denser stand. Keep the soil moist until germination; once established, these high-altitude wildflowers tolerate summer dry spells.

Are these seeds treated or GMO, and what if I am not happy with them?

Every batch is non-GMO, pesticide-free, and never coated with synthetic chemicals, just clean seed selected for purity of 95 to 99 percent and tested for germination at 70 to 95 percent, so you know exactly what is going in the ground. That same transparency runs through our 100% money-back guarantee. Our policy is simple: if you aren't happy, send it back and receive a full refund. Anytime, for any reason.

A difficult book that must be read
This is a Pulitzer Prize winning novel by William Styron (the author of Sophie’s Choice). It is based on a slave revolt in Virginia in 1831, lead by Nate Turner. Turner’s capture and confession is the basis of this book. The novel is told in a 1st person narrative and is largely the work of Styron’s imagination. While it is brilliantly written Styron does include graphic scenes of highly erotic obsessions with various white women and one of the most vivid homosexual encounters in modern literature. Probably because of these scenes Styron was savaged by many of the leading black artists of the day but the book has endured the criticism and is, in many ways, an American Classic. Slavery is an indelible stain on the fabric of American culture. It will never be washed away. Turner is an aesthetic, a religious fanatic, a brilliant, tormented misanthropic, homicidal nihilist. His band of followers slaughters 52 men, women, and children. In retribution the white slaughter 200 blacks. Turner is captured, interrogated, and executed. Instead of inspiring a region wide uprising, he is brought down by his fellow blacks fighting alongside the plantation owners. It is a difficult book to read but it is a book that really should be read.

“The Confessions of Nat Turner” William Styron, 1966 Compelling ...
“The Confessions of Nat Turner” William Styron, 1966 Compelling is the word that comes to mind. This is a work of fiction based upon the actual event of Turners 1831 bloody insurrection. It is my option that a reasonably accurate portrayal of slave life and slave/slave owner relationships is presented. I will say that for my own part that, most of the time I was rooting for Nat. I don’t know that I have a clear understanding of Nat’s hatred except in the obvious; except for his education, why was his hatred so deep as to cause him to this violence? (In an afterword, Styron states that he believes Nat was insane but that in his novel he did not want an insane Nat) A thought that I had as I read the accounting was what if Turner had directed his energies toward educating other slaves? (Of course this would have been illegal but Nat’ owmer educated him.) A compelling read and I’m giving it 5 full stars.

Extraordinary Chronicle of an Avenging Warrior
I purchased this book, although I had read this several years ago. My interest to revisit the novel was aroused when I read The Good Lord Bird and viewed the series. There are strong parallels in the struggles and the motivations explored in these works. Styron is a talented writer who makes this history come alive and gather relevance. The brutal consequences of an impossible circumstance lives on through this century as the legacy of slavery is explored in splendid literary works such as this powerful novel. I highly recommend it.

Make Sure You Read the Vintage Edition with the Afterword
I initially purchased this book to read for two reasons: First, it was written by William Styron, who wrote the great "Sophie's Choice;" and second, it won a Pulitzer Prize. It was only after I was into the book that I learned that this vintage sixties' book was the subject of a major controversy over the depiction of the title character, Nat Turner. I learned that Styron openly acknowledged fictionalizing large portions of Turner's life, including his motivations for leading the slave revolt. I also learned that Styron's largely fictionalized portrait of Turner outraged many black leaders of the time. Rather than painting Turner (entirely) as a hero, called to action by the injustices of slavery, Styron created a darker picture of a man fixated on religion, a vision of himself as a prophet, and frustrated by lust and desire (particularly, for a young, blond haired white girl). As I read the book, I search my own feelings, and felt that if I were black, I would certainly have objected similarly. We all need our heroes, who become much larger as symbols than they could ever be as people. For the sake of those that come after, such icons are perhaps entitled to be treated with a greater level of sensitivity and care--even at the cost of literary restraint. It is here that the story gets fascinating. After I finished the novel, I read Styron's Afterword. Styron was truly stung by the criticism and in the Afterword, provided an elegant and persuasive defense of his writings. While I will not say that Styron entirely changed my position, he definitely made me see the other side of the argument. The dialogue between Styron and his critics not only allows the reader to consider one of the great social and political issues of our time, but permits the reader a unique insight into the thinking of a great writer--and suffices, in and of itself, as a reason for reading this novel. MAKE SURE YOUR VERSION OF THE NOVEL HAS THIS AFTERWORD. Putting the issue aside as to the real "Nat Turner," the novel itself is beautifully written. The characters are fully developed and believable. The description of the system of slavery and the relationship between whites and blacks feel very real, and very accurate. Styron shows us good and bad of each race, and how all of them are bound by the system of slavery and their actions directly the product of it.

I loved this book.
I read this book for my book club and I thought it was beautifully written. It has stayed with me for weeks now. I love when a book does that. I'm glad I wasn't swayed by controversy. I had no problem with the fact that the author was white and using a black voice(maybe because I'm white - but I do like when an author gets the voice right and I thought Styron did that). I didn't understand the charges of racism after reading the book. Sometimes I wonder if, what some people find uncomfortable, they label as racist or sexist or whatever. Anyway, I would encourage everyone to read this book because it gave me a fresh awareness of a huge part of U.S. history, it reminded me that there are always gray areas to consider and it was a great novel. You might think so too.
