Low growing wildflower seed mix
Low Growing Wildflower Seed Mix
Create a beautiful, long-lasting wildflower meadow without the height. Our Low Growing Wildflower Seed Mix has been specially formulated with carefully selected British native wildflowers that produce an abundance of colourful blooms while maintaining a naturally lower-growing habit.
Ideal for flowering lawns, road verges, pathways, parks, orchards and open spaces where maintaining visibility is important, this diverse blend creates a vibrant display from spring through to autumn without overwhelming the surrounding landscape. Containing predominantly perennial species, this mix establishes into a permanent wildflower meadow that returns year after year, becoming richer and more beautiful with every season.
A Haven for Pollinators
Packed with nectar and pollen-rich wildflowers, this mixture provides a valuable food source for bees, butterflies, hoverflies and many other beneficial insects throughout the growing season. By sowing this mix, you're helping to create an important habitat that supports Britain's declining pollinator populations while adding natural beauty to your outdoor space.
Species such as Bird's-foot Trefoil, Self-heal, Cornflower, Lady's Bedstraw and Cowslip are particularly attractive to pollinating insects, while Yellow-rattle helps reduce vigorous grasses, allowing a more diverse and colourful wildflower meadow to flourish naturally over time.
