Wild Flower Seeds.

[DaveH3]

Could anyone tell me the BEST place to buy or obtain a decent quantity, say 100-500 grams of native wild flower seeds. Mixture if things like **********, Corn Marigold, Campion and Poppy etc? Thanks.

On the above I actually said cornc-o-c-k-l-e or agrostema githago but it didn't like the common name spelling.

hiya not sure if you have a store near you(u probabably do)called wilkinsons,but last year i bought a box of wild flower seeds there it had poppies and lots of lovely other flowers in it that u just throw all over your garden,it was excellent value as the box cost only a pound,next time i go down there il read the box and get back to you on what is exactly in it..

Living in the U.S. I can't help you with your direct question, but a little advice from experience. Be sure the area you're going to seed is one that can be isolated from the rest of your garden. Wild flowers live up to their name and will proliferate throughout the whole country side if not contained. I planted some in a corner of a rose garden and within two years time they had almost taken over the entire garden. Had a heck of a time digging them all up. At any rate, good luck, but be forewarned!

Thanks Beckyboo I would appreciate that info and thanks also Clanad but the problem I have is getting them to stay in my garden and come up every year, even the perenials seem to die off and just get replaced with Ragweed and Dandelions etc.
