Westland Unwins 3.6Kg Easy Wildflowers Flower Seed Blend & Granular Mix - Westland

The ideal sowing times are spring (March to May) or autumn (August to October). Sowing in these periods allows the seeds to germinate and establish with favorable weather conditions.

Annual varieties typically bloom within 6-10 weeks of sowing. Perennial varieties will establish in the first year and provide blooms in subsequent years. Full flowering effect may take a full season.

While designed for open ground, you could use it in very large containers or planters with good drainage. Ensure consistent watering, as containers dry out faster than open soil.

The growing granules help to keep the tiny seeds evenly distributed during sowing and provide a small amount of initial nutrients to aid germination and early plant growth.

Divide your target area into 18 one-square-meter sections. Aim to distribute roughly 1/18th of the pack over each section for even coverage.

Light preparation is recommended. Removing weeds and lightly loosening the soil surface to a fine tilth will give the seeds the best start. Over-tilling is not necessary.

This mix performs best in sunny to partially shaded areas. It may not establish as well or bloom as prolifically in deep shade.

Ensure the seeds were sown thinly on prepared soil, lightly covered, and kept consistently moist. Check for adequate sunlight. Re-sow a small patch if necessary, ensuring proper conditions.

In the early stages, carefully hand-weed to avoid damaging young seedlings. Established wildflowers are generally competitive against weeds. Consider mulching around established plants if needed.

Ensure a variety of flowers are blooming. Some varieties may take longer to establish. Avoid using pesticides in the area. Check if the location receives adequate sunlight.

Confirm adequate watering and sunlight. The included granules provide initial nutrients, but very poor soil may benefit from a light dressing of compost in subsequent years. Ensure good drainage.
