My garden space and s 4 by 8 feet. How many seed packets would I need? And can I mix butterfly and honeybee packets?

Hi Kristine, if you make 8 rows maybe 10 inches apart each stretching 4 feet across the bed then you’d be able to plant the whole set in the 4 by 8 foot bed and kinda keep track of what you have, what works and what doesn’t. if you just go 2 feet with each packet then you could double the number of species but it would be pretty tight. there’s nothing wrong with planting both the butterfly and the honeybee herbs in the same garden. richo

really depends on your facilities there. Most herbaceous perennials like these can be started in an unheated greenhouse in April in a z 6. If no greenhouse, then better to wait until later on in the spring. richo
