I grew a nice garden from your Texas/Oklahoma mix this year adding some extra poppies. It was some real eye candy! I look forward to this falls planting already.

I want to compliment you on your product. I planted the Autumn Beauty Mix and Dahlia Flowered Mix along my seawall on the Mississippi. The flowers are beautiful and the Yellow Finches, hummingbirds and butterflies love them. I really enjoy just sitting on the deck in the mornings with a cup of coffee, watching all the activity around the flowers.

I am speechless. Your seeds have “painted” a breath taking picture to our yard. The picture can not portray the full beauty and amazing aroma. My daughter Erika took the photo and daughter Jenna loves to pick flowers daily for the home. Your satisfied customer for over a decade and many more years to come.

I wanted to let you know how pleased I am with the wild flower seed that I purchased. Wildseed Farms was recommended to me by my neighbor. I did not fertilize or anything special just threw the seeds in and watered. Thank you; my gardens are the envy of all the other ladies in town.
