Native to California and much of western North America, it is a cheerful cool-season annual often found in open sunny habitats, grasslands, slopes, fields, and disturbed places. This bright wildflower produces coiled flower clusters that gradually unfurl, resembling the scroll of a violin — hence the name “fiddleneck.” The small tubular flowers are typically yellow to orange and are useful for native pollinator gardens, meadow plantings, and naturalistic wildflower patches. \u003cbr\u003eBest sown in fall to early winter in mild California climates, allowing winter rains to germinate the seed naturally. Prefers full sun and well-drained soil. Once established, it is quite adaptable and may self-sow in suitable conditions. Fiddlenecks can be toxic to livestock if eaten in quantity, so plant thoughtfully near grazing animals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeight: 1–4 feet.\u003cbr\u003eOptimum Soil Temperature for Germination: 55F–70F\u003cbr\u003eBlooming Period: March–June.\u003cbr\u003eGermination: 7–21 days\u003cbr\u003eSowing Depth: 1\/16\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePacket contains 25 organically grown seeds, untreated, non-gmo.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CaliforniaNativeSeeds.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48935622410488,"sku":null,"price":5.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0767\/8378\/0088\/files\/image_e652e5f7-ddfd-4a81-89ef-08b9ca1742fb.png?v=1781486042","url":"https:\/\/californianativeseeds.com\/products\/menzies-fiddleneck-amsinckia-menziesii-seeds","provider":"CaliforniaNativeSeeds.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
