 Description:
GF04 is the very best of our easy to grow Garden Wildflower range suitable for any sunny to slightly shaded border. GF04 attracts butterflies in abundance.
Ideal against a wall or as a mini meadow, well behaved in a border, perfect for an island bed of wildflowers.
This mixture is intended for gardener who starts with very clean soil and are prepared to deadhead the fading flowers to maintain long season flowering.
This is the 'floweriest' mixture we have in our entire range and is mostly a well behaved mix for a perennial border or meadow.
Occasional thinning will be required and where favourite species are identified these can be transplanted or you can save the seed.
To add further interest I have added additional uncommon species, watch out for the rare Haresfoot Clover, a silver flowered native clover of seaside sandy soil.
Fleabane is a late flowering yellow daisy and is worth transplanting to a wetter spot.
Native Irish Bluebell, (not the invasive non native form), Welsh poppy and Foxglove will all grow in the shade.
