A simple yet visually pleasing Economy Wildflower Seeds mixture of the more common UK native species for overseeding into meadows, large gardens and environmentally sensitive landscapes.
For the best results, broadcast these seeds over harrowed (or raked) thin or sparcely populated grassland before rolling (or treading) the surface firm again.
Contains Annual Wildflower Seed and Perennial Wildflower Seed

Add native ‘Economy Wildflower Seeds’ (We recommend 5 to 20% total) to any quantity of Basic or Diverse Meadow

Over seeding into existing grassland or meadows can be successful providing the sward is sparce, slow growing or non competitive. Any aggresive or fast growing grass species will simply smother new seedlings before they have a chance to become established, particularly in the spring when grassland and meadows are heading (flowering and producing seeds).

Broadleaf and grass weeds should be controlled before sowing takes place and soil fertility should be reasonably low.
Most wildflower species take 6-12 months to fully establish before flowering so we have included some native annual wildflowers for a little first year colour.
