These seeds are carefully blended mixtures of non native annual species that can embellish the landscape. Theses flower mixtures consist of species that can adapt to different soil types, climates and the sun exposure. They will produce a gradual and varied flowering of different colours in a short period of time.

They are low maintenance and require neither fertiliser nor pesticides.

SOWING GUIDE 

FESTIVAL should be sown in the spring ideally between end April and May. They are best sown in full sunlight and shaded areas should be avoided as the flowers within the mixtures have been selected for their ability to thrive in sunny positions. The soil temperatures help rapid germination and so cold wet seed beds should also be avoided.
Shake the can before sowing to ensure a good mixture as smaller seeds often settle to the bottom of the can. Sow at 1 to 2 grams per m2 which should give you the desired plant population.

Produce a firm fine, seedbed, remove stones, weeds and any debris and rubbish before you sow. Seedbed preparation is critical to your success so spending a little bit of time and effort on this operation will pay dividends in the future! Fertiliser is not necessary for the mixtures to establish or to bloom.

The seed can be broadcast or drilled but only needs lightly covering with soil. After sowing lightly rake to cover the seeds and water and wait for your colour splash to appear! After establishment FESTIVAL should need very little attention

Theses cans are hermetically sealed to preserve seed quality and will allow the seed to arrive in perfect condition!
