Economy annual wild flower seed mix
This annual native wild flower seed mixture will produce a bright and colourful landscape quickly. Annuals must re-establish themselves each year from their seed and they thrive on bare ground in sunny situations. They are ideal for flower beds and cultivated land.
Annuals are quicker to germinate and flower compared to perennial wild flowers, you can add this mix to either of my two open ground perennial economy seed mixtures i.e. my economy clay, loam and sandy soil mix or my economy chalk and limestone mix to give you a lovely blaze of colour whilst the perennial wild flowers are bulking up their leaf and root growth prior to flowering.
This mix is 100% annual wild flowers with no grass. Scroll further down this page to see the species content. It is suitable for all soil types. It should be seeded at a rate of 2g per m2.
