Description
10 x Wild flower plants fully grown in 9cm pots
These wild flowers will tolerate of a regular mowing regime and so you can maintain a short mown lawn yet still enjoy all the benefits of colourful wild flowers. The plants I have selected for my collections flower lower down on short stems and flower quite prolifically and resume flowering quite quickly following mowing. Just plant them straight into your lawn and then reduce your mowing frequency to once every 3 weeks and maintain a cutting height of between 2 to 3 inches to create a fabulous wild flower lawn, great for bees, butterflies and humans!
My wild flower plant collections consist of 10 mature plants of flowering age; these are robust plants much bigger than plugs, in 9cm diameter pots, labelled with the name of each wild flower and ready for planting.
I have carefully chosen these selections of species for their combination of flowering times (listed below) to provide you with a colourful continuous show from April till October or longer. I have also chosen the species for their beauty and wildlife value, especially for butterflies and bees. These plants will come up year after year and are fully hardy.
