Wild Flower Economy Meadow Mixture General Purpose

Economy Meadow Mixture - General Purpose

This economy mix contains 20% wild flowers (15 species) and 80% grass (6 species). The mix does well in all types of soil including those where the fertility is higher. It is designed to be a balanced mix but not too expensive, an ideal starting point. After a period of annual mowing has reduced the soil fertility, other species can be introduced.

5g of seed is enough for 1 square metre of land.
