By sowing Native Irish Wildflower Seeds, you are:
Supporting native biodiversity with habitat and forage for bees, butterflies, and beneficial insects.
Feeding wildlife through extended flowering from May to September.
Regenerating natural landscapes with Ireland’s oldest wildflower species.
Reducing carbon impact (living groundcover, improved soil life) and promoting soil health.
Connecting communities—perfect for gardens, schools, estates, businesses, and shared green spaces.
Pollinator Support – Nectar/pollen for bees, butterflies, hoverflies across the season.
Continuous Colour – 40% annuals give first-year impact; biennials/perennials carry colour in years 2+.
Soil & Ecosystem Health – Root diversity improves structure, water retention, and microbial life.
Low-Input Beauty – Once established, perennials reduce maintenance vs. bedding plants.
Habitat Creation – Dense, species-rich cover offers shelter and breeding sites for insects and small fauna.
Cultural Heritage – Restores species that have shaped Ireland’s landscapes for centuries.
• Certified native Irish seed mix (conservation grade) — annuals, biennials, and perennials.
• Sowing Rate: 1.5–3 g/m² (use the higher rate for quick coverage or small displays).
• Light Requirement: Good access to light (full sun to open partial shade).
• Optimal Sowing Windows: March–June or August–October.
• Flowering Period: May–September (annuals year 1; perennials from year 2).
• Where to Sow: Borders, meadows, verges, planters (min. 15–20 cm depth), community beds.
• How to Sow (Quick Guide):
• Clear area of grass/weeds; rake a fine, firm seedbed.
• Mix seed with dry sand for even distribution; broadcast at 1.5–3 g/m².
• Lightly rake in (seed needs contact with soil but not deep burial).
• Water gently and keep moist until established.
• In late winter, cut back to 10–15 cm and remove arisings to keep fertility low.

• Lifespan: Annual & Perennial Mix
• Sowing Rate: 1.5–3 g/m²

• Sowing Periods: March–June or August–October
• Flowering: May–September
• Supports: All-Ireland Pollinator Plan; RHS ‘Perfect for Pollinators’
• Annuals (e.g., Cornflower, Poppy, Corn Marigold) flower in year one for instant colour, then set seed and die (they may self-seed).
• Perennials (e.g., Ox-eye Daisy, Red Campion, Meadow Buttercup) establish roots in year one and flower from year two onwards, returning each year with less maintenance.
With spring sowing, expect first-year colour from annuals by May–September. Perennials typically flower from year two, extending the display in future seasons.
Choose a sunny, low-fertility area with good light—beds, borders, planters, or meadow patches. Avoid overly rich soils and heavy shade for best results.
Remove grass/weeds, rake to a fine tilth, broadcast at 1.5–3 g/m², lightly rake in, and water. Keep moist during germination; avoid burying seed too deeply.
In late winter, cut back to 10–15 cm and remove cuttings to keep nutrients low (this favours wildflowers over coarse grasses). Minimise fertiliser.
Yes these certified native species support the Plan and are RHS ‘Perfect for Pollinators’, providing nectar and pollen across the season.
