A Year-Round Solution for Wildlife

This Wild Bird Wildflower Mix is an excellent choice for those looking to support local wildlife throughout the entire year. In summer, it attracts essential pollinators like bees and butterflies, helping to boost biodiversity. As the seasons shift into winter, the plants in this mix produce seeds that will nourish birds, providing them with a natural food source when other options are scarce. It’s a great way to offer birds a helping hand, especially during the colder months when food can be hard to find.

When to Sow for the Best Results

For the most successful and vibrant display, sow this wildflower mix in early spring, around March or April, once the winter frosts have passed. This timing ensures the seeds have the optimal conditions for growth and will be well-established by summer.

Sowing Instructions:

  • Pack Size: 9g
  • Recommended Sowing Rate: 3g per square meter
    This sowing rate will ensure that your garden becomes a beautiful, thriving wildflower haven that supports both pollinators and birds.
