Wiltshire Meadow Mix

This Wiltshire meadow mix is another seed mix harvested from sustainable sites in the wild. The seeds are sourced from the beautiful chalk downland of and south of Salisbury Plain. Because the seeds are direct harvested we are unable to give exact %s of the constituents, which will vary from year to year. Typically, however, wildflowers make up a high % of the mix - 65% against 35% grasses - as against commercial generic mixes, which are 20% wildflowers and 80% grasses.

Mixture contains Betony, Bird's-foot Trefoil, Black Medick, Bristley Hawkbit, Burnett, Buttercup, Clustered Bellflower, Cocksfoot, Common Bent, Common Cat's-ear, Common Knapweed, Cornfield Annual mix, Crested Dogs tail, Devil's-bit scabious, Dyers Green Weed, Eye Bright, Fairy Flax, Field Scabious, Greater Knapweed, Greater Stitchwort, Hoary Plantain, Kidney Vetch, Lady's Bedstraw, Meadow Foxtail, Meadow Vetchling, Meadowsweet, Oxeye Daisy, Plantain, Quaking Grass, Red Bartsia, Ryegrass, Saw-Wort, Selfheal, Small Burnett, Small Scabious, Smooth Hawks Bit, Smooth-stalked Meadow Grass, Vetch, White Campion, Wild Carrot, Yellow Rattle.

Sowing Rate: 2 - 3g per square metre, or 9 - 12kg per acre.
Seed mixtures may be ordered in 1 kg increments from 1 kg upwards; if you are interested in smaller quantities please contact us. Over 10kg subject to availability, and prices on application. Please note that this mix is only available in limited amounts.

We donate half of our profit on sales of this seed mix of grasses and wildflowers to The Grasslands Trust

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.
