- Michael L, Charlotte, Vermont This is a 13 acre project. This client used the Northeast Mix and has done several of his own experiments by adding individual species and creating looks of his
own. This is 2nd year early and mid season bloom. It is a spectacular sight and can be done on a large, medium or small scale.

- JACK and CALA C., Harrodsburg, KY We were blessed to re-purchase my Great Grandfathers house last year and this fish pond was my first attempt to plant wildflowers. I have enclosed a
picture of the fish pond both old, with the family dog, and new with Vermont Wildflowers. Also is a photo of the Glads and Lilies I purchased from you - doing well! I so much have appreciated
Vermont Wildflower Farm and all the help you have been. Our yard is coming alive and I will be in touch for some more advice.

- JIM and SANDY P., Plymouth, Connecticut
"This is Jim P. and I thought I would share some photos from our field. My wife Sandy and I stopped by your store a few years back and had a wonderful time getting excited by our prospects. Took a while to
rectify eveything and get it going but we have gained some ground! Before this group of flowers it was all white daisies, very nice along with a small mix of other flowers. Now we are enjoying the Black-Eye
Susans, if I'm correct. Will continue to work on the bed and looking to the future. Thanks for your help," (After Jim did a few things to rectify his area, he is now enjoying the results! We think he did great!)
|
- Laura S., Mamaroneck, NY Dear Vermont Wildflower Farm, We LOVE OUR FIELD!!!!!!! THANK YOU! This has made our summers magic here. It is so magnificent the butterflies drift
down by the hundreds in the fall. Thank you for this miracle of beauty. My 92 year old mother sits entranced with the beauty. My next door neighbors are thrilled.
|
- Pat & Dick F., Reedsville, WI
We had the advantage of seeing both wonderful flowers in bloom and 'wildlife' in action at your farm! Thanks for the great time and hikes through the trails. While there we picked up an acre plus of
wildflower seed and planted this spring! Here are the results. Just grab a couple of friends, prepare and plan well and you can have this beautiful field too! We so thank you for this wonderful area! We took
photos of the field before and after and had so much fun doing so. We are out there every day and those driving by can't get enough and our neighbors love us! Thanks again! Pat and Dick Customer used
the Midwest Mix and boosted it with individual species! This is mid-season bloom the first year!
|
- Donna C., Lambertville, NJ
Donna kindly sent us some before and after photos of their wildflower project. This is a first year bloom and it's looking great. We also appreciate her lovely comments - "We are looking forward to the
next batch of seed and all that comes up. We will take some aerial shots later this summer when the new and old areas are in bloom. Thanks for your input on our plans. Donna"
|
- Karin G. Canada This customer wrote to us about their wildflower drive. This really looks very nice in its mid-season bloom. She wrote the following: "I bought wildflower seeds from
you last spring and we had tons of annuals the first year , This year we were pleasantly surprised with tons and tons of perennials, Thank you!" This customer used the Vermont Wildflower
Farm House mix.
|
- KH, Winston, OR "My husband and I took a vacant lot and decided to make a garden for enjoyment in the middle of our small town. Your flowers grew so well, in some cases close to
6 ft. We wanted to let you see how nice it is!" This customer used Sulphur Cosmos and there are some pink ones too! This customer used Orange Cosmos and a bit of Wild Cosmos!
|
This customer did an area with our All Perennial Mix. This is very early season bloom beginning the 2nd year. Next year, it will be even more beautiful as it will year after year. They are so happy with
the results. If your a patient gardener and can wait a year for first bloom, this is the garden of wildflowers for you.
|
- JONATHAN F. Chatham,Massachussetts This customer has spent some time and money rectifying the soil and area. He has planted more than one mix and after some time, here are
the spring results. Very beautiful! This is mostly the Northeast mix with the beginning of the perennial seasonal bloom. The lupine and daisies are in their full glory. These will be followed by
the mid season bloomers and the late season. Over the years the area should multiply. We bet it is a big pleasure to sit in those adirondack chairs and enjoy the lovely view!
|
- BRUCE & SUSAN L., Weare, New Hampshire This customer sent in these wonderful photos of their wildflower area in front of their home with the following note: "In 2007, with the help of
some wonderful landscapers, we planted our 17,000 sq. ft. meadow with seeds from the Vermont Wildflower Farm. This year we've thoroughly enjoyed our meadow of wildflowers. We're sending
these photos because we think you and other wildflower enthusiasts will enjoy them." These photos depict early spring perennial bloom of Dame's Rocket, Siberian Wallflower and mid season bloom
of gloriosa daisy and others. The bloom will change in spring, summer and fall. Beautiful job on this planting done by Durgin & Durgin Landscaping. LLC! This customer used the All Perennial Mix!

- Derek B., Canada This customer did a rock wall with our low grow mixes and had spectacular results. This is just the beginning of the bloom!
|
- BILL C., Woodstock, Vermont "We talked a few times last year and early this year about dealing with grasses in my wildflower patch. You suggested Ornamec which I applied early in
the summer. I can report that the Ornamec was quite effective in controlling the grass in my patch--better than I expected. I am attaching a couple of pictures taken a few days ago. I have
every variety of flowers represented in my fields at the moment. I am pleased with the outcome." (We think the outcome is great too!) This is second year mid-season bloom!
|
- Jeff A. & Lisa M., Milton, Vermont This customer purchased spring bulb products, wildflower seed and did some great gardening! They sent us these lovely photos of some of the flowers
and their comments "your bulb and wildflower seed products can't be beat, but best of all is the wonderful customer service and your interest in our success! Thanks a million!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
- Thomas L., Petersborough, NH This is a before and after of a project that Thomas did. His words "This shows what happens if you have faith in tiny seeds, because the before's are pretty ugly."
This is the early season perennial bloom and we think that the "after" makes this area beautiful! He did a wonderful job! You can do something like this too! Transform your area like Thomas did!
|
- Linda W., Waterbury, Vermont Linda sent us these wonderful photographs of early spring perennial bloom on her property in Waterbury, Vermont. She is continuing to work on her wildflower

|
- Sondra B., Callicoon, NY Dear Vermont Wildflower Farm, All photos were taken on my father's airstrip, located in Callicoon, NY, where we had the joy and blessing of planting many of your
wildflower seeds this past Spring. The yellow lab in one of the photos is our family dog "Molly" and the children are my own Amelia and Curtis. These flowers have been our passion this Spring,
Summer, and now Fall (we are praying for a late frost this year!) and we have received so much pleasure from monitoring their progress daily. Thank you for your wonderful seeds. This customer
has planted the NE Deluxe, Cool Tones, Hummingbird/Butterfly, Partial Shade, Perennial Low Grow and 14 different individual species!
|
- Heather B., Oyster Bay, NY Hello, I had visited your farm last fall and grew a lot of your flowers this spring/summer. I wanted to show you some of my zinnia flowers I grew. Everyone is
amazed by them and asks where I got them. Thanks again,

- Anne P., Parkton, MD I took this photo in May of our Labrador retriever “Reilly”. We planted our garden late last summer and this spring it was beautiful. We are in the process of buying more
seeds to extend our season.

- BETSY S., Huntington Beach, CA
We wanted to share with you these pictures of the wildflowers in my backyard in Huntington Beach, California. We visited your place last summer and purchased the Western mixture. Planted the seeds
in late October, The flowers started blooming in March and have not stopped. Beautiful and what a surprise to see the variety and the spectacular colors!!!
|
This project involved the drive and entrance of their home, It made a very nice improvement to the entrance landscaping and is very beautiful changing every couple of weeks during bloom time!!
This is the Northeast mix and contains both 1st and 2nd year bloom!
|
- JOHN & KAYE K., Flushing, MI
John and Kaye have created a wonderful wildlife habitat environment on their property in Flushing, MI. Each year they have been adding to their areas of wildflowers. They have done mixes from
Partial Shade, Deer Resistant to our Hand Gathered and Rare Species. These wonderful photos are only a small taste of the wonders they have done! This year they are again adding. It must be a
spectacular sight! We appreciate them sharing with photos and each year we look forward to new ones!
|
This customer used our Northeast Deluxe mix. The photos she sent are of the first year bloom. It was so beautiful that a friend of theirs took photos and made note cards.....What a thrill. This is first year
bloom. We think its gorgeous too!
|
UPDATE: This is what our meadow in
Westerly RI looks like 2 years after
planting! Lots more color and
thickness this year.
- CATHERINE G., Medford, Massachussetts
Catherine shared these lovely photos of her Cardinal flower. These are her comments: "I purchased a packet of Lobelia Cardinalis 3 years ago and sowed them last year and planted them in the garden this
spring. One of the stalks has come up pure white. I got a bonus of a rare white variant!! I also want to tell you how much I have enjoyed a packet of mixed cornflowers. I tossed them in the garden last fall,
without much care and now have a beautiful border of blues/pinks/purples. They have bloomed all summer! BTW I am not on a farm but in an urban setting 4 miles from Boston, very near the Mystic River. I do
not have a large plot but have thoroughly enjoyed playing with these seeds!"
Vermont Wildflower Farm writes; you don't have to have a huge area to enjoy wildflowers! Contact us and we can tell you how.
|
- ROY AND SARAH M., Cleveland, Tennessee "Thought you might enjoy a picture or two of the flowers that came up this year. I wish we had more room to grow them, but when they're in their
prime, they're the prettiest thing in the neighborhood. The rock wall you see starts at the street and goes all the way up our driveway. Most of our neighbors really enjoy them!!!!" Thanks! Sarah
|
Edward P. Hopewell Jct. NY This is several different mixes and flower bulbs. Beautiful landscaping with a nice spread of flowers on the embankments which aids in stabilization! Both first and
second year bloom!
|
- EVELYN P, Phoenicia & NYC, New York
We planted a bed alongside our cabin with wildflowers because we are not there so often but wanted something gorgeous. It has exceeded our wildest dreams and made all the neighbors jealous! I am
going to write a letter to the local paper telling everyone to do it because we have zillions of bees, hummingbirds, butterflies and other wildlife attracted to it, and lordie knows we want to help those
pollinators. But also it is a stunning garden that the deer don’t touch and that requires basically no maintenance and thus no polluting or energy intensive additives, not even much water! I am going to
add more beds all over our yard this fall and maybe find some spots in our city location as well (those might be guerilla gardening!). The photos do not do it justice!
|
- Todd and Amy S., Delivan, Wisconsin
First off, I just want to send you all a big "THANK YOU" for the seeds we ordered from you last spring. We separated a bunch of them up and put them into little pots as wedding favors last June. My
husband and I were married on our mountain bikes in a State Forest and then we had a big ol' potluck after the ceremony... so much fun! ....and I just can't tell you how many people commented
throughout the summer on their lovely wildflowers that they planted from our wedding. I included your info on each of the cards included with the flower seeds and hand-painted pots, so hopefully, you
will get some more customers this season!! Your products are WONDERFUL!!!! I am including a few photos for your viewing enjoyment :o) Thanks so much!!! Keep up the great work! We look forward to
ordering again from you this year!!! New home and huge new yard you know! We will need plenty of flowers!

- TEE & JANET T., Mendon, MA Hi Chris and Diana, This is just a small portion of our newly created wildflower collection that we planted last spring. Just one season and such beautiful color
all summer long! We can't wait until this coming second season to watch it evolve into even more color for our front yard. We got so many nice comments from passersbys while we sat and
enjoyed the many different species of wildflowers we have. Thanks for such a nice blend.
