Wild Flower Seed
Collection for Wetlands

This seed mixture consists of perennial (apart from Yellow Rattle which is an annual) wild flower seeds which are native to the UK.  It contains a mixture of wild flowers species able to tolerate a fluctuating water table and periods of being waterlogged.  Most plants need to be well established to withstand winter flooding, so seeding needs to take place very early in autumn or better still, in spring.  All of the wild flower seeds are of British native origin.  The seeds should be sown from 1.5g per square metre depending on the density of flowering required.   The mix will consist of seeds from the following:
