Plantworks Ltd MMRG01 Empathy Mini Meadow Easy Sow Wild Flower Seed 3m², Multi

Be Patient! So I showed in April, very little happened, few shoots in may, lots of weed looking leaves in June but July.... wow, hundreds of flowers, I sowed the seeds thickly, used two packs in a raised bed 10m long and 60cm deep. Idea was a cheap filler in a previously empty (newly constructed) raised bed. Result best proven with the photos attached. Best bit is the poppies, they only last a day maybe two but every morning I go out and see literally dozens of new flowers. Last night no poppies, this morning over 40! Very happy with purchase and price. Thank you.

The majority of the plants are corncockles and common poppies. I only got one cornflower unfortunately but there were plenty of other species including clovers and butter cups and some that i don't recognise but are very pretty and a healthy portion of grasses of various types. Overall I'm extremely satisfied because this is my first ever meadow and the feeling this spring/early summer seeing it all come to life was well worth the money i spend on 5 packets of this seed mix. However, I do feel like it needs more variety and will be adding that myself at the end of the season with individual seeds of my choosing like more wild cornflowers and Italian crimson clovers. Would recommend!

Good results, has attracted a lot of fovourable comment from passers-by, have used before and find good longevity of growth into the autumn. I see from other posts that some are suggesting that these don't "work", however I have always had success with this product in previous years, and likewise this (summer 2015) which was exceptionally dry here in June/July. I find it helps to tend and water a little as the tender new plants first appear, nothing onerous, just a bit of common sense. I do find the mix tended a little to yellow and red this season, if anyone from Empathy reads this 5 star ratings are only a little more white and blue away.. Great product for the price.

A little disappointed with this. I had an area in my garden that I wanted to brighten up but this seems to be a super slow starter. Seeds have been in many weeks and so far have maybe managed a couple of inches of growth. Not entirely sure if I am growing plants or weeds at the moment. Not a keen gardener so maybe my expectations were a little off but I did think I'd have more for my buck than I've got.

I brought these on a whim as I had already brought some ‘Bee Pellets’ which contain seeds in a clay that look like a pellet. I brought this product as I wanted lots of foliage. I planted in May and the picture attached shows the progress in July! The bee pellets I brought were absolutely rubbish in comparison to this seed product! I’ve got beautiful blue flowers blossoming as well as a hidden yellow flower. There are still buds yet to bloom. In the set up that I current have for my wild flowers, they need watering everyday, especially in this heat. To help their growth, I have used concentrated tomato fertiliser fluid as well as general concentrated plant fertiliser fluid. I pop a bit in my watering can and water them. Don’t let the fluid fertiliser touch the leaves as it makes them go bad so water at the stem where the soil is. Do this once a week and water with usual water everyday and they will shoot up and blossom! You can do this with regular plants to, like hanging baskets but once again, don’t let the fertiliser touch the leaves. This product is definitely worth a buy if you want to help the bees and have beautiful wildflowers in your garden. Considering I brought this on a whim to try, I have been really happy with the results! I would highly recommend this product.

I read negative and positive reviews for this item, but given as it is seed and heavily dependent on ground conditions for success I bought this item. We have an allotment and the ground is very fertile. This product is a complete waste of time, we did not get a single wild flower from it. What we did get was an extra weed patch which we could do without. I do not recomend the purchase of this product. It is a waste of money , you could not get poorer value for money as you actually get nothing.

Gradually turning our grass area into a meadow garden, dug bare earth patches last autumn and put these seeds in and they are all coming up brilliantly good and strong 7 month later. I have been cutting the grass around the patches just to give the seedlings a chance. I also protected the seeds from birds with netting, and took that off a couple of months ago. Now they are well on the way to making my grass are more of a meadow. I will be doing more patches again this autumn so will buy more seeds. I have been reading about the fungi and how it helps plant life, it certainly seems to to here. I might add that we have never used weed killers so we already had buttercups and daisy plus dandelions in our grass. After spending so many years cutting it for the children to play on, we decided now they are grown and gone, we will turn it into a meadow with a winding path and logs to separate the garden bed area. It is so amazing to see what comes up. Wild life, frogs, bees all love it. We are learning about what you can eat, herbs for medicine like plantain for bites and stings. So many things we thought just horrible weeds are now our pleasure to have and enjoy. We only have to cut grass area once a year in autumn after flowers have seeded.

I would describe myself as a 'casual gardener', or some days a 'reluctant' gardener ;-) But I do love the garden, and we enjoy trying to get as much nature into it as possible. These were purchased to grow a mini-meadow on some unused land at the side of the house, and so far we are not disappointed. Planted some directly to the newly cleared and tilled land, and some in a big tray of plugs, and the plugs started very quickly - within a couple of days. Probably haven't done so well yet on the land, as we have still been having frosts, whereas with the plugs I've been putting them away each night. I'll transplant the plugs when they get a little bigger. Very pleased, will buy some more again. Happy to recommend.

Bon produit

Not many flowers and the instructions were very basic.

Le piante sono cresciute molto rapidamente, ma ora mi chiedo se fossero per lo più erbacce poiché nessuna di loro è ancora fiorita in quasi 2 mesi.

good
