Wildflower Seeds - Plains Region
The Great Plains cover a large area in the the Central US that was once home to vast prairies and grasslands. The area stretches from Mexico to Canada, but has one thing in common - not a lot of rainfall. Much of the area gets less than 20 inches of rain in a year, and it is concentrated in the winter months. It takes drought-resistant plants, like the prairie wildflowers, to get through the long, dry summers on their own. If you have a way to irrigate the prairie wildflower seeds you buy online, then you can grow a lot of things in the plentiful sunshine of this region.

Blood Flower Seeds
Asclepias curassavica
Also known as tropical milkweed, these brilliant red and yellow blossoms explode with color in their first growing season. Although this species is a member of the Milkweed family, recent studies have shown that it actually may be detrimental to the Monarch Butterfly, especially in southern climates where the plants can survive year-round. The plants can harbor diseases that harm the Monarch, and disrupt their normal migratory patterns. Please only use this plant as an annual, and do not let it winter over!Quick ViewxBlood Flower Seeds
