Bring nature home with this beautifully illustrated and practical guide to creating wildflower habitats in the UK. Whether you’re working with a suburban garden, a stretch of meadow, a roadside verge or an urban balcony, this book shows you how to transform ordinary green spaces into vibrant wildflower meadows brimming with pollinators, insects and wildlife.

Why this book is perfect for British wildflower lovers

• Packed with expert advice from Jane Moore – a horticulturist, writer and former head gardener with decades of experience working in UK gardens and on national BBC programmes. 

• Focuses on native wildflowers and sustainable gardening practices – helping you to support UK biodiversity, boost pollinator numbers and make a meaningful contribution to the loss of wild meadow habitat in Britain. (In the UK we’ve lost more than 97 % of our meadows since the 1930s.) 

• Clear, accessible chapters covering: Why grow wildflowers? What can I grow in my garden? How to make a meadow. Ten things to know about wildflowers. Wildflowers for every garden and season. 

• Suitable for UK settings large and small – from rural plots to inner-city gardens – and offers ideas for sowing native wildflower seeds, designing colourful meadows, supporting bees, butterflies and other wildlife.
