Kidney Vetch Plug Plants Anthyllis vulneraria

This hardy perennial is a native wildflower found in dry grasslands and meadows, often on sea cliffs and dunes. Named after its large, kidney-shaped flower heads which are bright yellow or orange, kidney vetch is a valuable plant for pollinators, attracting bees, butterflies, and moths with its nectar-rich blooms. It also provides food for birds through its seeds.

Ideal for wildlife gardens, meadows, or naturalistic settings, kidney vetch thrives in well-drained soil and full sun but can tolerate light shade. Perfect for creating a low-maintenance garden that supports local wildlife.

Our strong, healthy plants are grown in 40cc cell trays and are ready to be planted in their final position.

Sourced from native seed and grown for us in the UK, our plug plants are an ideal way to boost species in a wildflower meadow or to easily establish plants in your garden or in areas where seed germination can be erratic. 

We recommend planting 5 plugs per metre square in groups of at least 3 per species for a naturalistic look.
