Severn Valley Meadow Seed Mix
This mix is harvested from a Hamlet on the Severn floodplain, between Gloucestershire and Tewkesbury. Floodplain meadows - once such an important resource - are now one of our rarest landscape features, and it's very rare that we can find a seed mix like this.
The mix has a high wildflower content and a great deal of diversity, including tell-tale wet loving species like Meadowsweet. The harvesters categorise it as MG4 - pretty classically, as it includes a goodly proportion of both Great Burnet and Meadow Foxtail.
There are full instructions on the back of the packet. You can expect to receive your seed within five working days.
