| | | Pollen and Nectar Seed Mix A selection of wildflower seeds to provide long-season support for bees, butterflies and hoverflies. This mixture of flowers will thrive in most soil types other than water-logged or very acidic. There are annuals, biennials and perennials to provide pollen and nectar for feeding insects from spring until late autumn with a variety of flower shapes to support different feeding requirements. Note that the biennials and perennials will only flower in the second year, and that this seed mix contains non-native Phacelia. There are no grasses in this mix, which are important for butterflies; if you would like a mix for them look at our Butterfly and Moth mix. We sell a similar but less diverse mix of plug plants for butterflies and moths.

We donate half of our profit on sales of this mix of wildflower seeds to Butterfly Conservation
We strongly recommend reading up meadows before buying seed - see our resources section, brief guide to preparation and aftercare, and illustrative projects. We also run courses on meadow creation and management and offerdesign and ecological survey services. Although our seed has high germination rates, you need to be careful about initial care and establishing an annual regime. Don't be put off though - once you get the hang of it it's pretty straightforward.
Although we mostly sell seed mixes, we do also sell Yellow Rattle as a useful regulator of grass growth and Viper's Bugloss, as the bumblebee's favourite nectar flower. If you are interested in any other individual species please ask.
