This collection includes three individual packets of seeds containing the following native wildflower species.
Field Scabious – Growing on elongated, slender stems, the pin-cushion-shaped blooms of field scabious appear in delicate shades of lilac between July and October. Well-suited for herbaceous borders, its blossoms are highly favoured by both bees and butterflies and make beautiful cut flowers.
Agrimony – Peppering garden borders with clusters of star-shaped, yellow blooms which have a mild apricot fragrance, common agrimony is a valuable medicinal herb and also the larval food plant of the Grizzled Skipper butterfly.
Common Knapweed – The pink-purple flowers of common knapweed are made up of many tiny flowers with ragged bracts, borne on stems to a metre high above clumps of mid-green leaves. Rich in nectar and pollen they are beloved by bees, butterflies and moths and provide food for seed-feeding birds in autumn.
