Acid Soil Wildflower Grass Seed Mix

Our Acid Soil Wildflower Grass Mix is an 80% grass, 20% wildflower blend specifically formulated for moderately acidic soils with a pH of 4–5.5. Carefully selected native species thrive in acidic ground conditions, making this mix ideal for creating colourful, wildlife-rich meadows where traditional wildflowers may struggle.

Designed to establish reliably and provide long-lasting seasonal interest, this mix enhances biodiversity by supporting pollinators, butterflies, birds, and beneficial insects. Suitable for gardens, meadows, parks, estates, and ecological landscaping projects, it delivers strong establishment with minimal long-term maintenance. For best results, mix seed with dry sand, sifted topsoil, or sawdust for even coverage, then lightly rake and roll to ensure good seed-to-soil contact.
