Description

Choose from our range of 100% wildflower border seed mixes to create a naturally beautiful border in your garden or wildflower area.

Get that informal cottage garden feel while creating a haven for butterflies and moths with this mix of native butterfly and moth-friendly wildflowers including birdsfoot trefoil, dark mullein, vipers bugloss, field scabious, wild carrot, yarrow and St Johns wort.  Not only are they nectar-rich, but these species are an important source of food for butterfly and moth larvae.  For instance, birdsfoot trefoil is a food plant for caterpillars of the silver-studded blue and the wood white butterflies, and yarrow is a food plant for the larvae of many moths including Essex emerald, ruby tiger and the common pug.

All our native wildflower seed is sourced from stock grown in the wild in Britain.  It is then multiplied up commercially and packed in the UK so you can be confident you are buying native British wildflower seed.

Sow in spring from March to May or in autumn from August to October.
