Dual Purpose combines a feast of annual and perennial wildflowers for both 'instant' colour and a long-lasting meadow. Five bold cornfield annuals species, including cornflower and poppy, will bloom beautifully in the first year while the perennial plants develop. From year two, these stunning, long-lasting species will flower for years to come, creating a permanent wildflower area.
Not only does the Dual Purpose mix provide a practical solution for areas where speed of flowering and a long-lasting meadow are both important, it's a treat for bees and butterflies too - stuffed full of flowers recommended by the RHS as ‘Perfect for Pollinators’.
Contains 27 different native wildflower species.
Sowing Rate: 3 grams per sq/m - 1kg covers 330sq/m
