Bats in the Garden Wildflower Seed Mix

The Bats in the Garden Wildflower Seed Mix is a 100% native wildflower blend specifically designed to support bats and nocturnal wildlife by attracting night-flying insects, which form a vital part of a bat’s diet. This carefully selected mix contains nectar-rich, night-scented wildflowers that release fragrance after dusk, drawing moths and other insects and helping to naturally enhance bat foraging habitats.

Ideal for gardens, estates, farms, conservation land, rewilding projects, landscaping schemes, and ornamental borders, this mix delivers both visual appeal by day and ecological benefit by night. The species included have been chosen for their flowering reliability, scent, and ability to thrive in UK conditions while supporting biodiversity, habitat creation, and wildlife conservation.

Best results are achieved when sown into bare, weed-free soil without grasses, allowing the wildflowers to establish fully and flourish. Once established, this mix creates an elegant, natural display while contributing to pollinator networks, insect populations, and sustainable garden ecosystems.
