Sowing:

Scatter packs can be sown directly from the box to your garden soil, without the need pot potting on. Shake well before opening.

Direct sow from March to June for flowering in the same year, or September to November for flowering in the following spring and early summer.

Prepare the soil in full sun or semi shade, on fertile, well-drained soil. The soil should be dug over and raked to a fine tilth, removing large stones and weeds.

Sow seeds by scattering them across the prepared area at a rate of 25-30g per m2 (around 8 tablespoons).

Water the ground immediately after sowing and regularly thereafter, until the seed have germinated and young plants are well established.

Water regularly until they are fully established. When growing wildflowers, deadhead faded blooms regularly to encourage more to be produced. This mix contains annuals and perennials. In autumn the perennials can be cut back to just above ground level to make way for new growth in the spring. Annuals may be left to set seed at the end of the season if more seedlings are required for the following year.
