Description
Mum’s Meadow is a limited edition version of the Plantlife Mix, with proceeds from the sale of this tin supporting the charity (this information is shown on the reverse of the tin). The mix includes five native wildflowers that are most likely to thrive in the nutrient rich soils commonly found in our gardens.
Each ball contains approximately 30 seeds per ball from a mix of Meadow buttercup, Oxeye daisy, Red clover, Self heal and Yarrow. Each tin has 20 seed balls, enough to cover 1 square metre in a garden bed or 3-5 medium sized pots (leave at least 10cm between each ball). Best scattered in Spring or Autumn.
We make the seed balls ourselves from our HQ in North London - from a mixture of UK native wildflower seeds, clay, peat-free compost and chilli powder. The clay protects the seeds from wildlife, and once water has permeated the clay, the seeds inside will germinate, helped along by nutrients and minerals contained within the ball.
