The Nutrient Neutral Wildflower Mix is specially formulated for areas where soil fertility is naturally low or where nutrient inputs are deliberately limited. It encourages species-rich grasslands and flower-rich margins by combining low-competition wildflowers and legumes with fine-leaved grasses. This mix is ideal for farmers, landowners, and consultants looking to enhance biodiversity and meet Countryside Stewardship GS4 and AB8 targets without relying on fertilisers.
In addition to boosting biodiversity, this mix supports pollinators, soil health, and ecological balance across paddocks, meadows, and buffer strips. Its hardy composition allows it to establish successfully on less fertile soils and to provide structural and visual diversity year-round. With careful management, it can maintain long-term species richness while providing forage and habitat for beneficial insects and small wildlife.
