What to Expect
Let the planting develop.
Expect a shifting rainbow effect rather than rigid stripes of color, with different species taking turns and contributing to the full-spectrum look over time.

Paper Street Perennials® signature mix
ROY G. BLOOM™
A rainbow-inspired mix that carries the garden through a full spectrum of color.
ROY G. BLOOM™ is for gardeners who want the planting to make a statement. Instead of a restrained palette, it leans into a classroom-color-wheel idea and turns it into a meadow-style display, with flowers that read from warm to cool and enough variation to keep the stand visually active across the season. It is a natural fit for playful spaces, family gardens, teaching gardens, or anywhere a bold multicolor look is the point.
CoverageCoverage depends on package size: about 500 sq ft for 2 oz, 1,000 sq ft for 4 oz, 2,000 sq ft for 8 oz, and 4,000 sq ft for 1 lb.
SunlightFull sun is best for most of the mix.
