Enhance lawns, pathways, and open green spaces with the Flowering Lawn & Short Wildflower Plug Plants Mix. Specially designed for low-growing, mowable habitats, this mix of UK native wildflowers delivers vibrant seasonal colour while supporting pollinators and biodiversity. Ideal for flowering lawns, parks, school grounds, community gardens, and estate landscapes, it combines visual appeal with ecological benefits.
Each plug is grown in a 40cc cell, ensuring rapid root establishment and quick impact. This short wildflower mix remains under 30cm in height, making it suitable for walkable, regularly mown areas while still providing nectar-rich blooms for bees, butterflies, and beneficial insects. Whether you want to mow occasionally or leave for extended flowering, these plug plants are versatile and low-maintenance, creating flowering carpets in lawns and open green spaces.
A minimum of 10 native species is supplied, including Yarrow, Kidney Vetch, Oxeye Daisy, Birdsfoot Trefoil, Cowslip, Meadow Buttercup, Ribwort Plantain, Lady’s Bedstraw, Self Heal, and Common Sorrel. Species selection may vary slightly depending on seasonal availability to ensure strong, healthy plugs at the optimal planting time.
