    Well, if you need to buy these seed in the first place, then you’re probably not in an environment where they’d usually grow. It takes time. At least more than one season to get it going.

    My local municipality planted local wild annual seeds all over the city two years ago. It made a nice news article, but the flowers are all gone by now because they didn’t re-seed.

      Yeah, it could take awhile to reestablish a native habitat that has been messed up by people or invasive species, but if conditions are right, annual wild flower populations should grow or at least sustain year over year.

      If the annual wild flowers couldn’t do that naturally, there would be no such thing as annual wild flowers.
