Catchfly Wild Flower Seed Overview

Catchfly is good at reseeding itself if wild flower seed falls on bare ground; otherwise, it just lives one year. Will grow quickly and bloom heavily before it is killed by frost. Will grow in all regions of North America in sun or light shade. Soil should be loose because seed is very tiny. Press seed into the surface of the soil, but do not cover. Plant catchfly wild flower seed in spring or fall after frosts. Very good in meadows or stand alone with its rose/purple clusters of small flowers. Will flower in just 6 - 8 weeks after germination.
