Happy Saturday to YOU!!!

 I am thrilled to announce a brand new page at Mary's Heirloom Seeds just for Organic Wildflower seeds.

 Allow me to introduce you to...


Open Pollinated. Also called Cornflower, this attractive old-fashioned wildflower blooms in shades of blue, carmine, pink, and white that is quick and easy to grow. Frilly flowers sit atop multi-branching stems. Perfect cut flower that freely self-sows.

Contains: Crimson Clover, Sweet Sultan, Purple Coneflower, Mexican Sunflower, Tricolor Daisy, Thoroughwax, Sweet William, Mexican Lupine, Love-In-A-Mist, Blanketflower, Calendula, Shasta Daisy, Lance-leaved Coreopsis, Indian Blanket, Prairie Aster, Sunset Flower, Bachelor Button, Cosmos, Yellow Prairie Coneflower, Gloriosa Daisy, Moss Verbena, Sweet Alyssum-, Plains Coreopsis, White Yarrow, and Queen Anne's Lace.     

Open Pollinated. Large flowers in shades of yellow to orange add color to borders and flower gardens. The flower's strong aroma deters many garden pests.

This marigold has nematocidal qualities when dug into the soil. Has been used medicinally for centuries.
Great Companion Plant!  Attracts bees and butterflies

Open Pollinated. A low growing border plant with bright colored flowers in yellow, orange, and red.

Flowers (and leaves) are edible and taste similar to watercress, add them to salad for a punch of color. Prefers cool, mild conditions. Easy to grow and blooms quickly. Thin to 6 - 12" apart.  Attracts bees and butterflies.

Branching sunflower variety with lemon yellow petals and dark centers. Long-blooming season. 
Plant seed 6 apart and 1/2" deep after spring frost. Thin to 1' apart when plants reach 2" tall.  Attracts bees and butterflies.
Open Pollinated. This lovely legume thrives naturally through much of California. Blue and white clusters of blue-violet, pea-like flowers occur on 6 spikes above palm-shaped leaves.

    That cornflower pic brings back memories of wheat fields in the UK populated with wild cornflowers and poppies in the warm summer sunshine. Didn't see the other colours much though. Still it was nearly 50 years ago, so like everything else, newbies have come along! Thanks for the memory!

    I am a new follower from the blog hop. I love your blog before I moved to Cali I was a very avid gardener and it was fun to browse through the seeds on your page.

    I hope you will follow me back at:

    I love the lemon sunflowers. Last year the birds and squirrels dug up all my seeds so I didn't get to see them bloom. Hope you have a great day.
