| Wild Flower Meadows - Methods of creating your wild flower meadow/lawn | |||
|
The finest natural meadows are on poor soil. This is because the low nutrient status suppresses the grass growth and allows wild flowers the chance to grow. As fertility increases, grass growth rate increases, particularly |
 |
||
|
if the wrong types of grass are present (e.g. ryegrass). The wild flowers
then tend to be overwhelmed. Most soils are fertile and as the prerequisite
for a good meadow is a poor soil, the best way to start in most instances
is to remove the top soil. Naturescape produce a helpful leaflet 'This way
for your Wild Flower Field.' - A practical step-by-step guide to wild flower
meadow creation, using seeds or plants. This is priced at £6.50 including
postage and packing (contact us here).
