Description
Choose this range of 15 lime-loving native wildflowers and 7 grass species to create a species-rich wildflower meadow on chalky or calcareous soil.
The poppies and oxeye daisies will dominate in the first 2 years with the other perennial species, such as salad burnet and kidney vetch, becoming more prominent from year 3 onwards.
All our wildflower meadow mixes comprise 20% wildflowers and 80% grasses. The native wildflower seed in our mixtures is sourced from stock grown in the wild in Britain. It is then multiplied up commercially and mixed and packed in the UK so you can be confident you are buying native British wildflower seed.
For best results sow in the spring from March through to May, or in the autumn, from late August through to October. Best sown onto a bare seedbed.
