This is our wild flower meadow mix which is best
suited to wetland areas.
It is a mixture of 80% grass and 20% wildflowers .
There are 16 different wild flowers in the mixture
which will cope with ground that is prone to some
water logging.
The application rate is 4 grams per square metre or
yard.
Having a wide range of species will extend the
season of flowering .
Once established, the aim is to have species of
different height , colour and appearance from May
through to August.
