Description
A mixture that is perfect for pollinators. This blend of ornamental, annual and perennial species has been specifically selected to supply pollen-bearing flowers to benefit bees, butterflies and other pollinating insects for the longest period possible from spring through to early autumn.
On heavy clay soils extra care should be taken to protect emerging plants from slugs. This mixture is perfect for sowing as a food source close to habitat mixtures such as WFG2 Flowering Meadow.Â
