Coastal Meadow Seed Mix
Not one of our cheaper native wildflower and grass mixes, but you can see why. A stunning variety of perennials for coastal or exposed sites. Salt tolerant, but requires full sun. We also sell a less diverse selection of coastal plug plants without grasses.
20% wildflowers, UK origin.

We strongly recommend reading up on wildflower meadows before buying seed - see our resources section and brief guide to preparation and aftercare, which includes links to our "how to" blogs and video. We also run courses on meadow creation and management
Although we test our seed and it has high germination rates, you need to be careful about initial care and establishing an annual regime. Don't be put off though - once you get the hang of it it's pretty straightforward.
