The Native Flowers series are seeds from native flowers, which are good for biodiversity in your garden.

Sowing native cornflowers:

Sow the cornflower seeds from the end of March to the end of May outside in the open ground, spread out or in rows and then thin out slightly. Cornflowers bloom from June to October.

Flowers are vital for bees, butterflies and other pollinators. They obtain the necessary nectar and pollen from flowers and also ensure the fertilization of the plants.

It is important that bees and butterflies can easily enter the flowers. Many 'modern' flowers have now grown to such an extent that the stamens and pistil are almost impossible for bees and butterflies to reach.

The best way to help wild bees, butterflies and other types of pollinators is to grow wild native flowers in your garden.
