ANNUALS FOR NATURALIZING 
Autumn is the best time for sowing California wild flowers. Clear the ground. 
Loosen and break up the soil. Scatter seed and rake lightly. Better results are 
secured if the ground gets some moisture after sowing and during the early 
stages of growth. Most California wild flowers prefer light soil and good drainage. 
About eight pounds of seed are needed to sow one acre. For garden purposes, 
one ounce will sow from 150 to 200 square feet.
