How to Sow Wildflower Seed Mixes
Clear and prepare the ground, removing weeds and creating a fine, firm seedbed.
Mix seed with sand to aid even distribution. Broadcast by hand or with a spreader.
Lightly roll or tread the area to ensure good seed-to-soil contact.
Avoid fertilisers, as wildflowers prefer nutrient-poor soils.
Water lightly in dry conditions during establishment.
