Suitable for newcomers to wild flower growing. Create a flowering meadow or just a natural patch in the flower garden.

Some plants flower the first summer, the rest in spring, summer or autumn the next year. Height: 20-150cm (8in-5ft). Average Height: 60cm (2ft).

Sow spring or autumn in a sunny, weed free site, preferably of low fertility, don't use fertiliser. Rake well to make a seed bed, mix the seed with 9 parts dry sand and sow evenly. Lightly rake in and firm the soil with the feet or a roller.
Thin out seedlings carefully to 30cm (12in) apart and transplant thinnings carefully.
