I am planting a flower garden in my front yard. Should I wait for flowers to sprout before adding mulch?

or will adding mulch after they sprout hurt or weigh down the new sprouts?

No, definitely mulch as you plant them. They will easily poke their heads through the mulch and won't do any damage to the plants, unless they're really small when you should only put a thin layer of mulch over the top. Mulch is very important as it retains moisture in the soil and suppresses weeds, giving your flowers an even better chance of survival. Good luck with your new plants.
Reply:No, mulch helps retain moisture and also breaks down to provide nutrients, this is needed when you plant. Don't put the mulch on top of the plant only around it.
Reply:yes you should wait untill they are at lease 1inch above ground then u can mulch
