Thank you so much for sharing this:)
You are so welcome, Bonnie! 🙂
Awesome, thank u Collin finally got it, sites a little slow to load. 🙂
You are welcome! 🙂
Thanks!
You bet! 🙂
Would love wild flowers to plant.
Darn, it won’t send to P O Box #’s. 🙁
Most of the time the post office will put mail into your p.o. box even if you use your street address.
Weird, I used my Po box and it said it went through.
I don’t think it will ever load lol
Same thing here…
it will but take a long while…
the website showed “failed” after I hit submit….
I kept getting the same message, but I kept pressing submit and eventually a I help a bee message.
Thank you for sharing, and now it shows “too many submission from this IP”…
Fun, my friend just started keeping bees last fall.
What a wonderful freebie! Bees are truly needing our help, they are dying in unprecedented numbers all over the world 🙁
Thanks, thinking of planting makes me happy after this cold, snowy winter!
🙂
Thanks so much! I plant wildflowers around my raised garden to attract bees to pollinate my veggies.
You’re welcome, Amy! 🙂
Try to plant seeds and plants that have not been treated with neonicotinoids, if you want to help the pollinators! Unfortunately I think the big box stores don’t know if their plants have been treated (and most probably have) but local greenhouses should know, especially if they grow their own. Good luck Lauri, with your beekeeping. I started 6 years ago…
These seeds are most likely all neonicotinoids since they are being offered by Bayer company.
Coming from the ag industry it absolutely does not make sense to treat these seeds. They will not be treated.
These seeds will only kill more bees 🙁
Please do NOT get them, if you already have please do NOT plant them.
What makes you say that-just curious…
Huh?
Cite your source for such a claim, please.
Government conspiracy????
Well, it is interesting that one of the companies that may be at fault for Colony Collapse Disorder is giving out free wildflower seeds. If the seeds came from plants that were treated with their products, I’m wondering how good these will be for the bees… Hopefully, since they are “wildflowers”, they weren’t treated with their product–which I’ve read can stay in the plant for 2-3 years. Don’t mean to be a downer–I’m usually all about the feebies. Just recently started learning about bees & thinking of becoming a beekeeper. 🙂
Tiffany, there is no ‘if’, they are definitely treated as the chemical is their product. It’s not being a downer, it’s being informed and mindful about what you do, that’s so important to spread information. I wonder how many people would so easily jump on a free product labeled “KILL a Bee Wildflower Project”. It’s very disturbing. Just as disturbing as Monsant GMO company wanting to ‘have a discussion’ about food in every magazine I read……the irony and sneaky tactics.
I just emailed them to see if they would respond. Regarding if these seeds are sprayed with anything and if they are genetically modified… Hmm. Let’s see if they’ll be honest.. Or even respond.
Angela is right…they’re manufactured by Bayer..the drug company that has for years been in a ‘private’ (not government, Margarita) conspiracy with other big drug companies and chemical companies (i.e., Monsanto) who are already killing bees and butterflies with their pesticides in the Midwest. It’s a program being dangled by the actual bee killer. Nice.
thank you for posting this~ I just said the same on comment 23. this could be really BAD.
Thank you so much!
😀
Thanks!
YW! 🙂
These are 100% GMO seeds, the same seeds that have decimated the bee population in this country. The same seeds that are illegal to sell in many European countries. The company is giving them away to spread more bee death. Please research this company and it’s seeds and the controversy.
Thank you for stating all the pertinent information Terri! I wish I would have had more time when I initially made my comment.
These are not GMOs seeds. There is a lot of research and regulation in this industry.
got my seeds! Thanks
YW! 🙂
I’m torn…. I am afraid of bees but I like flowers…. but if what some people say above is true (that these will actually kill bills) then I don’t want to do that either…. So I like the idea of flowers but I don’t want to kill or attract bees….
When our kids were little we had a huge 1/2 acre side yard, and every spring the wild flowers would bloom and the yard would be full of bees. The kids had to be careful going out for a few weeks, but the flowers were so beautiful it was worth it! I am excited to get these seeds and bring back some memories!
will it grow in AZ?
Thank you Collin!!!! I got some for my mom and sister too!!! It did say 2 packs per household, I tried signing my husband up but it won’t allow me to oh well, Still looking forward the seeds I am getting 🙂
Thanks so much!! I love wildflowers and have lots of land to spread them on!! Can’t wait to get mine😊🐝🐝🌺
WARNING… Bayer and MONSANTO work together. these seeds may NOT help bees after all…..do your research! watch out for GMO seeds. Knowledge is POWER.
If only there were a way to tag your warning on all who submitted for their “free” sample… You may not be paying for that pack of seeds, but trust me.. It’s costing all of us. Please take the time to research GMOs or better yet watch the documentary “OMG GMO”.
Please take the time to actually research GMOs and not just watch a documentary. This is a great technology with great promise.
You all who think these are gmo seeds need to get a clue. No company is going to spend the tens or hundreds of millions of dollars it takes in research and development to genetically modify wildflower seeds! There’s no profit in this.
Now it is possible (but improbable) that they are coated with a neonic.
“Now it is possible (but improbable) that they are coated with a neonic.’
These are from BAYER ! This company is not bee friendly, they are a chemical company that is covering it’s butt!
They produce chemicals to put into the hive. No amount of forage will cleanout and save the bees from that .Do not fall for it.
I take pictures of bees. I would love to share some. Janet
