Self-sowing plants are species that naturally drop seeds and regenerate year after year without the need for replanting. These plants are often used in informal gardens, meadows, and naturalistic landscapes where a more spontaneous, evolving garden design is desired. Examples include cosmos, poppies, and columbine. Self-sowing plants are valued for their ability to fill in gaps, create dense plantings, and add an element of surprise to the garden as they appear in new locations each season. When incorporating self-sowing plants into a landscape, it's important to consider their growth habits and potential for spreading, as some species can become invasive if not managed properly. Regular thinning, deadheading, or selective removal can help control their spread and maintain a balanced garden composition. Self-sowing plants contribute to a dynamic, ever-changing garden that requires minimal intervention to thrive.
