Low-Growing Native Wildflower Turf is a ready-grown wildflower turf designed to create a shorter, more managed wildflower lawn with natural seasonal colour. Containing a species-rich mix of wildflowers and fine grasses, it offers an attractive alternative to traditional lawn turf while supporting biodiversity and habitat creation.
Suitable for gardens, pathways, verges, landscaped areas and public spaces, this low growing wildflower turf can be mown regularly once established to maintain a neat, flowering lawn-style finish. It is ideal for projects where a lower-maintenance, wildlife-friendly wildflower area is needed without the height of a traditional meadow.
