Seedball Meadow Mix

An exquisite blend of native wildflowers that's perfect for enticing pollinators. The Garden Meadow mix combines a colourful selection of resilient annuals and perennials that thrive in most gardens, even those in higher pollution zones—excellent for road verges too. Each seed ball is packed with approximately 30 seeds featuring a medley of Common Toadflax, Cornflower, Cowslip, Meadow Cranesbill, Musk Mallow, Oxeye Daisy, and Red Campion, complemented by pollinator-friendly annuals like Chamomile, Corn Marigold, and Night-Flowering Catchfly.

Seedball grab bags are made of paper, which means they're entirely free of plastic and suitable for home composting. Beyond your personal gardening use, these bags are delightful gifts for gardeners, bee supporters, butterfly aficionados, and those who cherish eco-friendly or birthday presents. They flourish in various planting areas such as window boxes, balcony pots, garden plots, and wildlife gardens. It's time to embrace rewilding!

Cornflower (Centaurea cyanus)

Annual.

There is an old belief that when you walk around the flower three times it will remove any spells that have been cast on you!

Cowslip (Primula veris)

Perennial.
Height: 20-30cm
Scatter: Late summer or autumn
Flowers: April and May
The origin of the name cowslip is unclear, but it may derive from the fact that it grows in meadows well manured by cow dung or cow slips.

Musk Mallow (Malva moschata)

Description: A tall perennial with large rose pink petals.
Height: 40-70cm
Flowers: June to August
The plant is cultivated for its seeds, which are used in perfumes. The plant also yields a fibre that can be used for clarifying sugar.

Meadow Cranesbill (Geranium pratense)

Perennial.
Height: 30-70cm
Flowers: June to September
The large purple flowers of Meadow cranesbill turn into pointed, bill-like seed pods that give the plant its common name.

Oxeye Daisy (Leucanthemum vulgare)

Perennial.
Height: 30-90cm
Flowers: May to September
In Austria and Germany oxeye daisies were hung inside the house as it was believed they would repel lightning.

Red Campion (Silene dioica)

A perennial with rose pink petals.
Height: 20-60cm
Flowers: March to November
Silenus the merry god of the woodlands in Greek mythology, gave his name to Silene dioica. The second part of its scientific name, dioica, means 'two houses', and refers to the fact that each Red Campion plant has flowers of one sex only, so that two plants are needed to make seeds.
