Best for Bees

The flowers are not only great for bees but will add loads of colour to your garden. Bees prefer blue flowers, so the Phacelia, Borage, Echium and Cornflower are a vibrant mix of blues, spiced up with rich-red Common Poppies.”

Sow the seeds evenly over a sunny area of your garden that you have dug over, raked and weeded. This pack will cover an area of about 5 square metres so if your patch is smaller, decrease the sowing rate accordingly.

After sowing, lightly tread or roll the seed area to ensure the seed is in good contact with the soil, and keep it watered until the plants are established. Allow the flowers to bloom and release their seeds back into the soil. Cut them down to the ground as the plants die off, and remove the cuttings onto the compost heap or into your green bin.

Sow outdoors between March and May, or August to October.
Plants will flower between May and September.
All seeds UK grown.
This 5g pack will cover approx. 5 square metres of ground.
The plants will grow up to 1.2 metres tall in very rich soil, but in most gardens will grow to about knee height.
Fully recyclable paper packaging, printed with vegetable based inks.
Seeds grown without any pesticides.

If you want to grow this mix again in the same patch next year, just cultivate the ground in the same way, removing any weeds, before sowing a fresh packet.

This mix produces lovely flowers that will help to feed bees and butterflies.

Bees & Butterflies with or without grass

This is a colourful mix of perennial and annual wildflower seeds that has been chosen to grow in most soils. The seed mix with grass includes 20% native grasses that are beneficial to meadow butterflies. This mix produces high levels of nectar and pollen and is perfect for pollinators.

Sow the seeds evenly over a sunny area of your garden that you have dug over, raked and weeded. This pack will cover an area of about 3 square metres so if your patch is smaller, decrease the sowing rate accordingly.

After sowing, lightly tread or roll the ground to ensure the seed is in good contact with the soil, and keep it watered until the plants are established.

We’ve specially selected plants that are known to be good for bees and butterflies, whether as nectar plants for the adults such as Greater Knapweed or Field Scabious, or for butterfly caterpillars such as Common Sorrel for Small Copper, Garlic Mustard for Orange-tip or Bird’s-foot Trefoil for Common Blue. Together with the wild grasses, this should create the effect of a very flowery meadow.

The pack contains some annual cornflower seeds such as Common Poppy and Cornflower that will flowers in the first summer, so allow them to bloom and release their seeds back into the soil. Then mow or cut the area with shears in August or September and remove the cuttings onto the compost heap or into your green bin.

In future years, the area can be mown in March, then left unmown through the summer, and cut again from late summer through to autumn, always removing the clippings. The amount of colourful annuals (poppies etc) will naturally decrease over time – that’s natural.

Cornfield Colour Burst

A beautiful mix of classic annual wildflower species that will give a burst of colour in your garden throughout the summer months. This seed mix will attract pollinators and help to feed our bees.
These flowers were once widespread in among cereal crops, but herbicides have removed most of them from the countryside, depriving bees and hoverflies of nectar and pollen and birds of their seeds. This is an easy way to put some of that value back.

The mix includes the rich-red of Common Poppies, sunshine yellow of Corn Marigold, pink of Corncockle and stunning blue of Cornflower.

Sow the seeds evenly over a sunny area of your garden that you have dug over, raked and weeded. This pack will cover an area of about 5 square metres so if your patch is smaller, decrease the sowing rate accordingly.

If you want to repeat the following year, repeat the instructions with a new packet of seeds. Some of the previous year’s seeds may also germinate.

Sow outdoors between March and May or August to October.
Plants will flower between May and September.

Mini Meadow

We’ve carefully formulated this seedmix so that you can sow it straight over an existing garden lawn to increase its diversity and value for wildlife in a quick, cheap and easy way.

We’ve lost a staggering 97% of our flower-rich meadows in the UK since the 1930s.

The mix contains a rich mix of perennial and annual wildflower species such as bird’s-foot trefoil and lady’s bedstraw, plus ‘the meadow maker’, yellow rattle, which helps suppress the vigour of the grass to allow the wildflowers to survive.”

To make your mini meadow, mow an area of garden lawn as short as possible, then scarify (scratch) it with a rake to expose little bits of soil (it will look a bit ravaged at this point, but don’t worry – it is vital to give the seeds a chance to germinate), and remove all clippings/raked vegetation onto the compost. Sow the seeds at 1g per sqm and water.

Allow the area of lawn to grow without mowing until late July/August. Then mow and keep doing so through the autumn if it needs it. Always remove all the clippings. The wildflowers may not flower in the lawn until the second year, so be patient! One established, they should be there for good. Remember, this is a haymeadow mix, so doesn’t contain colourful annuals such as poppies – the flowers are beautiful and extremely beneficial to wildlife but this mix isn’t about colour fireworks!

Sow outdoors between March and May, or August to October.
Plants will flower between May and September.
All seeds grown in the UK.
Contains a mix of perennial and annual seeds.

Meadow in a box

A mini meadow seed box with a combination of native meadow grass and perennial & annual wildflower species to create your own mini meadow. 20g of seed will cover an area of 6-7 square metres, and can be created over an existing lawn or on bare soil.

Wildflower meadows are some of our richest wildlife habitats, especially for butterflies, but they are almost totally lost from our landscapes. Creating your own wildflower meadow area will help so much wildlife, from bees that will nectar at the flowers to birds that will benefit from the insects and seeds.

You can make your mini-meadow in two ways:

On an existing sunny lawn, mow your chosen area as short as possible, then scarify (scratch) it with a rake to expose little bits of soil (it will look a bit ravaged at this point, but don’t worry – it is vital to give the seeds a chance to germinate), and remove all clippings/raked vegetation onto the compost.

Elsewhere in the garden or dig, thoroughly weed and rake an area of ground, ideally in a sunny position.

Then sow the seeds at 3g per sqm and water. Mow (and always remove the cuttings) every late summer through autumn. Remember, this is a haymeadow mix, so doesn’t contain colourful annuals such as poppies – the flowers are beautiful and extremely beneficial to wildlife but this mix isn’t about colour fireworks!
