NATIVE WILD FLOWER AND GRASS MIXTURES<br />
These mixes are blended from a range of native perennial wild<br />
flowers, together with suitable grasses to form well balanced<br />
conservation mixes for the target area. They each contain 20%<br />
British produced native wild flowers and 80% cultivated native<br />
grasses, and can be used as basic mixtures to which other<br />
suitable species of your choice may be added. A list of wild<br />
flowers contained in each mix is available on request.<br />
Broadcast seed at 3.5-4 g / m2. Careful soil preparation is<br />
required, with a low nutrient regime and sites should be<br />
weeded to minimise aggressive or dominant species<br />
SHADED AREA MIXTURE (deciduous woodland, open woodland<br />
and woodland edge)<br />
WETLAND AREA MIXTURE (saturated soils, banks of ponds,<br />
streams and ditches)<br />
CALCAREOUS SOIL MIXTURE (chalk and other limestone<br />
areas)<br />

ANNUAL MEADOW MIXES<br />
These are blends of non native annual species carefully<br />
selected to provide an interesting and varied landscape with<br />
overlapping flowering patterns blooming from early summer<br />
to autumn. Meadow mixes can provide an economic<br />
alternative to traditional bedding, and have been developed<br />
for their low maintenance characteristics to give informal and<br />
natural displays suitable for both large and small areas.<br />
