We strongly recommend reading up on wildflower meadows before buying seed - see our resources section, which includes links to our "how to" blogs and video. Although we test our seed and it has high germination rates, you need to be careful about initial care and establishing an annual regime. Don't be put off though - once you get the hang of it it's pretty straightforward.
