A native flower mixture to brighten up your lawn? That's exactly what this is. Sow it without or with grass seed (less grass seed always yields a more flowery lawn). Expect daisies, clover, buttercups and more, all of value to bees, bumblebees and other insects. Ecologically grown without pesticides and fertilizers.

Sowing density Are you sowing with lawn grass seed? Then use a total of about 125 grams per 100 m2, where the ratio is 10:3 (flower lawn mixture 10, grass seed 3). Are you only using the mixture without grass seed? Then use 100 grams per 100 m2.  
Seeding This mixture does best if you start with an open patch of soil and do not sow into an existing lawn, whether you sow with or without grass seed. Remove weeds and make sure the soil is healthy. Sow evenly by dividing the seed into trays per square meter, that way you can be sure you won't run short. Keep the seeds well moist.
Maintenance Mowing can be done as normal, but preferably less frequently and with a higher blade.

Which is what?

The terms may be new to you, here's what they all mean:

Annual - plants that bloom one summer and then die
Biennial - plants that you sow one year, and bloom (and then die) the next year
Perennial - plants that bloom several summers
Perennial - plants that survive frost and last for years

How many hours of sunshine?

Annuals plants almost without exception grow only in full sun. That means that you preferably need more than 8 hours of summer sun in the place where you want to grow them, for example from 10 - 18 hours. 6 - 7 hours will also go a long way, but the plants will grow just a little slower.

What soil?

Unless otherwise specified, annuals want nutrient-rich soil with extra compost in the spring. Read more about it in the Seed Guide.

Storing seeds

On the package of your seeds you will find the shelf life. You can use them until the date you see on it. An opened package is best stored in an airtight box in a cool, dark place, such as a hall closet. Not sure if the germination is still good? Then it's best to buy a new pack. We deliberately choose small amounts of seeds in the packs so you don't have to waste seeds.
