I have three cedar pots and I planted a load of seeds on a typical windy day in Puget Sound not too long ago. I had planned to space them properly but the wind was so bad that half the seeds blew away and well, I think I know where they landed.
Except for the knee hi sweet peas I'm not sure what is what. My dad is pretty sure it's all weeds lol.
Edited to add ... the Lupine, I can identify those!

Lots of life! Are you going to separate them all?
I'd like to leave them be because I'm afraid I'd do more harm than good if I tried that.
Love the thread title.
Do leave them mixed up, it will be about impossible to sort them and this will be a totally original combination. You should probably thin them a bit, though. I didn't one year and really regretted it. I ended up with a bunch of teeny tiny "90lb weakling" plants that didn't bloom well.
Looks like you are going to have a riot of color! I recognize some snapdragons and some california poppies? You will have a lot of fun seeing what is what as it blooms I bet....

2nd pot
You might have invented a new way to make a beautiful container.
An I wrong, or do I see some poppies in there too.?
I had two types of poppies - shirley and california
Not sure if I had any others.
Updated to add new photos. Here are my three jungle pots.
I followed advice to thin seedlings but I didn't do it well enough. Then we were so busy with trips to the ocean that I forgot to water them for 2 or 3 days, when we had 90 degree weather.
I've found the deer seem to like the bachelor buttons, which is fine by me.
Tiki -- I love them -- lush and varied foliage, with flowers to boot.
They look great.
