The 5 EASIEST Flower Seeds You Can Start for Zones 9 & 10

If you don't tell, I love flowers just as much as fruit & veggies! I want to talk about five super easy varieties you can grow. Before we get to that, let's talk about WHY flowers are so important. Flowers are usually some of the first things to bloom in the spring, and they'll attract pollinators all year long. Bees, hummingbirds, and others will want to visit your area and spend time spreading pollen around your flowers and other crops. Those beneficial insects are going to make your ecosystem more healthy and more productive. So let's talk about those 5 flowers! SCABIOSA: https://sandiegoseedcompany.com/produ... These are SUPER EASY to start from seed (and will re-seed themselves even in at our Ramona farm which gets HOT and also pretty chilly in the winter), and you can get a really wide range of colors & sizes. They make a great cutflower too! BORAGE: https://sandiegoseedcompany.com/produ... If you want to know how easy it is to grow borage, just know that I didn't even plant this. A plant from a previous season dropped its seed, and the season rains & irrigation did the rest. It's a prolific re-seeder, so you really just have to plant it once. The flowers have lots of pollen (which is why they're so tasty) and will attract TONS of bees. A couple other things that I love about borage is that the flowers are edible (great for a quick snack or adding to a salad to dress it up), and it creates a lot of biomass which is great for composting. FAVA BEANS: https://sandiegoseedcompany.com/produ... We have a couple varieties of favas, and they have many of the same qualities as borage. Their biomass production is unmatched, they grow TONS of flowers, and they're a great cool season bean option. CALENDULA: https://sandiegoseedcompany.com/produ... Calendula just takes care of itself! Start it once, and you'll have no problem growing flowers year after year. Of course, they bring lots of pollinators to your garden, but they're also edible & medicinal. It doesn't get much easier than this! Gaillardia: https://sandiegoseedcompany.com/produ... Also called Blanket Flower, Gaillardia is - you guessed it - both easy and beautiful. Like all of the others here, you can direct sow them and let them re-seed year after year.
