Where can I find wild flower seeds cheap?
Question:I have a 2 acre lot in northern aroostook county maine (near canada) and would like to seed the whole parcel with wild flowers native to the area. The summers are short with long cold winters dipping well below zero. I have checked around and the cost for the seeds would run from $400.00 to $800.00 for 4 to 8 pounds. This is a bit pricey for my budget. Please help.

don't know if there is a dollar store in your area but dollar stores offer one box that contain-es some hundred different kind of seeds I'm not good at math but remember alot of plants will reseed themselves therefore giving you the opportunity to spread the seeds where you want to make a beautiful display
This solution is free, but time-consuming. Take a walk in the woods or an open area. Note which wildflowers you like and their location. Come back in autumn when they've all gone to seed and collect the seed pods. Let them dry out over the winter and open them up for the seeds.
You could do what I do, which is when it turns cooler the flowers will start to shed their seeds for the next season. Than go around to a field and pick up the seeds. There usually in the flower pods attached to the plant. Than the next spring when its raining go out and spread the seeds around.
Do you have are do you know someone that has a dollar general store near you . The have flower seed four packs for a dollar . I think the are wild .
AmericanMeadows.com. I think this is the name. Google wildflowers. Maybe Lonnie's Bulk Seed. Also, internet site. Good Luck!
