Product Description

20 specially selected grass and wildflower varieties specifically mixed to grow in heavy or clay-like soils. This mixture consists of annuals which will flower in the first year and perennials which once established will come back year after year. Due to the nature of clay soils, extra attention is required in terms of seedbed preparation to encourage good establishment. For best results sow into bare soil. Expect flowering bloom from May to September

How do you prepare a field in which almost everything but thistles, docks and grass was poisoned by the previous land manager for your seeds.

Question by: Sophie Butcher on 5 Feb 2017 06:51:00

Hi Sophie,

I would suggest spraying off the land with glyphosate then start getting the ground ready for the new seed (we have a guide for this in our Help & Advice section). Make sure the weather has turned warmer before sowing your seed so it germinates properly. I hope this helps.

Is it too late to sow wild flower seed this year?

0

Question by: Paul on 11 Jun 2018 12:26:00

You can still sow now, you might see a smaller show of flowers this year however that will improve in year 2.

We have just put in a ground source heat pump so the area of about half an acre is pretty much bare clay, flattened by the digger. I was told before that wild flowers do best if the topsoil is removed, which it is now. What preparation do I need to do and how should apply the seeds?

When is the latest time in the year you could sow these seeds?

0

Question by: Anthony on 19 Nov 2018 09:33:00

It comes down to the average temperatures in your area. Far south of the UK you might still be able to seed however further north you shouldn't . To be safe I would suggest waiting until the weather turns for sping, simply store your seed somewhere dry and away from pest so it is ready to use when you are.

This product and your flowering meadow seeds product- when can these be sown? Which months of the year?

-2

Question by: Alex on 18 May 2018 18:22:00

These mixtures can be sown throughout the year with bloom usually taking 60-80 days. It may be the case that the first bloom may be after the first winter in soil.

note some of the seeds may need to go through a winter before they will bloom so you may not see a full display this year.
