Description
Wildflower Plug Plants for Pond and Water's Edge
Including native perennial wildflower species that thrive in waterside settings, choose this mix of UK plug plants to create a wildflower area beside a river or a pond. Plant within a couple of metres of the water's edge.
You will receive 10 species from a longer list of suitable UK wildflower plants, including marsh marigold, meadowsweet and purple loosestrife, subject to availability.
These species appear on the RHS Plants for Pollinators list and are a great source of food for bees, butterflies and other pollinators.
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.
