3. Planting:
- Depth: Plant the seed bombs no less than 5 cm (about 2 inches) deep.

Maintenance:
- Deadheading: Remove spent flowers if you prefer a tidier look or to encourage more blooms.
- Self-Seeding: You can also leave the flowers to mature and self-seed for future blooms.
5. Timing:
- Best Planting Seasons: Late summer, autumn, and spring are ideal times to plant your wildflower seed bombs. This allows the plants to establish themselves and bloom at their peak.
