SEASON’S PLANTINGS
Fall is the best season to plant wildflowers, as they are cool-weather plants that germinate when temperatures drop below 70 degrees.
The small plants that develop late in the year, called rosettes, are resistant to freezes. Over the winter months, they put down a taproot and use their tiny leaves to store up energy for the spring show. Most gardeners should plant around September or October, although those in tropical South Texas might wait until November or December.
