How to Sow and Plant
+
Sow the seeds directly outdoors between March and June on a sunny to partly sunny spot with well-prepared, loose soil. Spread evenly over an area of about 25 m², optionally mixing with grass seeds for a natural meadow effect. Lightly rake the soil to cover the seeds with a thin layer, then gently press down to ensure good soil contact. Avoid deep planting to allow quick germination. Keep the surface moist after sowing until seedlings establish, enabling the annual and perennial wildflowers to bloom beautifully from June onwards and self-seed for following seasons.
Choose a partly sunny location for vibrant growth and ensure the soil is well-drained to support this wildflower mix. Allow flowers to bloom fully to encourage natural seed formation and self-seeding for sustained beauty year after year. Water moderately during dry spells to maintain healthy plants but avoid waterlogging. This mix thrives best when left undisturbed, promoting biodiversity by attracting butterflies, bees, and other pollinators. Regularly observe the meadow through its June to October flowering period to enjoy a colorful, lively floral display reaching heights between 20 and 100 cm.
For best results, sow the seeds in open ground from March to June in a partly sunny location. Prepare the soil by loosening it to ensure good seed-to-soil contact. Water gently after sowing and keep the soil moist until seedlings emerge. Allow flowers to bloom fully and set seed to encourage natural self-seeding, ensuring a vibrant display year after year. Mixing with grass seeds can enhance the meadow effect. This mix thrives in a range of soil types and heights from 20 to 100 cm, attracting butterflies, bees, and other pollinators for a lively garden ecosystem.
