Research indicates that the custom of giving flowers goes back to prehistoric times. As in, humanity has been giving flowers as gifts for longer than humanity has been able to write. Which is appropriate because, according to your mother, she has been putting up with you for just as long!
The Hancock family has been working with wildflowers for generations, yet the beauty of these wild blooms has never failed to touch the hearts of our mothers, the “Seed Ladies.”
A bouquet is nice, but year-round burst of color around the home and garden is even better. That’s why Hancock Seed is looking to share the love by offering 35 percent off of our most popular wildflower blends through May 14 (that’s Mother’s Day...better write it down!).
Treat your mother with a 2 lb. bag of Hancock’s Southeast Wildflower Mixture, Bee Feed Wildflower Seed Mix, Alternative Lawn Wildflower Seed Mix, or Honey Bee Wildflower Seed Mix!
You can browse the different varieties below and find out what’s best for Mom. After all, she’s always done what’s best for you!
Hancock’s Southeast Wildflower Mixture
Our signature blend developed for neighbors in the Southeast United States, anywhere East of the Mississippi River and South of Kentucky! This blend of poppies, coneflowers, baby’s breath, clover, and black-eyed susans combines annuals and perennials to provide years of blooms! It’s also a great option for mothers who love fauna just as much as flora: Songbirds, hummingbirds and other critters will flock to your flower patch.

Honey Bee Wildflower Seed Mix
Honey bees are in need of a friend, especially considering recent declines in population. Now you can do two good deeds in one fell swoop. First, your mother will receive years of beauty in her backyard with this mix of coreopsis, aster, clover and other flowers. At the same time, you’ll be helping to sustain local bee populations, which of course helps your flowers as well! This is a great option for those interested in beekeeping!

Alternative Lawn Wildflower Seed Mix
Hancock Seed takes lawns seriously, so we’re not kidding when we speak about “flowering lawns!” This blend of poppies, daisies, alyssum and other seeds was originally developed as a low-lying cover crop solution. And, of course, a selection of fine fescues makes sure that everything that doesn't bloom is the verdant green you would expect from a "normal" lawn. This presents an ideal opportunity for someone who wants an extra splash of color on their green lawn!
2 lbs. of Alternative Lawn Wildflower Seed Mix covers 7,250 sq. ft., but the more dense the seeding, the more dense the color! Click here for more information!
Bee Feed Wildflower Seed Mix
You don’t need to research too much to find out why our Bee Mixes are among among our most popular products! Bees and gardeners have a mutual appreciation: They love the taste of the flowers you plant and, in return, they spread the love (and pollen), and promote a healthy ecosystem in your backyard. This blend features poppies, coreopses, forget-me-nots and more!
