I regularly try to plant my yard with "meadow mix" that includes lots of wildflowers, but the darn stuff never germinates. Just invasive weeds.

- roel_v 9y agoYeah it's usually not as simple as the package wants you to believe. On one plot I tried to renaturalize, birds would eat any seeds within hours after I'd spread them. Are you sowing in existing grass? Clearing some of it may help establish in a few places. Grass is the most noxious weed of all to remove, and the common lawn varieties compete with the sort of flowers in such mixes.
- skookumchuck 9y agoI've sowed on bare dirt, and in grass. As far as I can tell, not a single sprout.
