Our Pro Basic 8 Wildflower Meadow Mix is a carefully selected blend of 8 native British wildflowers combined with low-maintenance grass. Designed to thrive in a wide variety of soil types and conditions, this mix provides a vibrant, wildlife-rich meadow that enhances biodiversity and creates a natural, colourful landscape.
Ideal for gardens, parks, estates, and ecological projects, this mix attracts pollinators, butterflies, birds, and beneficial insects. The mainly perennial species establish quickly and provide long-term seasonal interest, creating a resilient and sustainable meadow. For best results, mix the seed with dry sand, sifted topsoil, or sawdust, sow evenly, and lightly rake and roll the seedbed to ensure firm seed-to-soil contact.
