Expert Response
Hello, Robert,
Thanks for contacting Douglas County Master Gardeners program through the Extension Foundation.
CSU Extension has an informative fact sheet to guide you in planting a wildflower garden/yard. I’ve included the link below.
Wildflowers in Colorado – 7.233

It will tell you that the best time to seed is in late summer or fall, but the fact sheet discusses how to get your site prepared beforehand.
I see you live in Jefferson County and the Conservation District there will help you get started with seeds which are appropriate to your area. Please check the link out below.
