Seed Revolution Wildflower Seeds

Here’s an idea... let’s not destroy everything. Instead, let’s protect something. Save something. Grow something. Scatter these seeds. Save bees. Spread the wild.

They are great as nature-friendly wedding favours, teachers’ gifts, birthday presents, secret Santas, Valentine's Day gifts, or just a way to spread some love.

Cheap and Easy Method: For a quick and cost-effective approach, simply scatter the seeds directly onto bare soil. This method requires minimal preparation but has a lower success rate as it relies heavily on natural conditions. Clear the area of any debris and lightly rake the soil to create a loose surface. Evenly broadcast the seeds across the soil, then lightly rake again to ensure good seed-to-soil contact.

More Involved Method: For better results, especially in areas prone to aggressive weeds, use a terram membrane. This method involves laying a terram membrane over the planting area to suppress weed growth. On top of the membrane, add a layer of calcareous soil, which is rich in calcium and ideal for many wildflowers. Sow the seeds evenly across the soil surface and gently press them in to ensure good contact. This method is more expensive and labour-intensive, but significantly increases the likelihood of a thriving and vibrant meadow.

When to Plant
The best time to plant your meadow mix is in the spring (March to May) or autumn (September to October). These periods provide ideal temperatures and moisture conditions for seed germination and establishment.

Where to Plant
Choose an open, sunny location with well-drained soil. Meadow wildflowers thrive in areas with full sun and minimal shade. Avoid spots prone to waterlogging, as this can hinder seed germination and plant growth.

Watering Schedule
During the initial establishment phase, keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water gently to avoid displacing seeds. Once the seedlings are established, they will require minimal watering, relying mostly on natural rainfall. However, during prolonged dry periods, occasional watering may be necessary to maintain healthy growth.

Blooming Period
Your meadow mix will bloom from late spring through summer, typically from May to August. This period may vary slightly depending on local climate conditions and the specific wildflowers in the mix.

Expected Plant Height
The wildflowers in your meadow mix will vary in height, typically ranging from 20 cm to 1 metre. This diverse range adds visual interest and supports a variety of pollinators and wildlife.
