Wildflower Seeds - Northern Region
The Northern region is home to our Canadian friends in the eastern provinces, as well as the northern-most part of the Eastern US. This area is characterized by a long, cold winter with lots of snow, and a short humid summer that only lasts about 3 or 4 months. Most of the area is classified as a UDSA Growing Zone 4 or less, and the species that grow here have interesting ways to perpetuate themselves in spite of the short growing season. There are a lot of forests and wetlands in this region, so adequate moisture is hardly ever a problem. Look up your growing zone to make sure that the Northern wildflower seeds that you want to grow are winter hardy. Alternatively, just order annual flower seeds online so that the plant does not need to make it through the winter, but can reseed itself and come back from seed the next year.
