Wild flower meadow...

Hello,

At our new premises near Rennes, we sowed several flower mixes with grass seed to brighten up the place and to cause passing traffic to notice our business.

Have a nose around!

Good man, looks great and I bet the insects and bugs love it, and also a good place to stop for lunch...birds & bats, etc.

Nice. Like that. Everyone's lawn should look like that:thumbup1:

Nice, good work

Excellent. A friend used to get this result each year by buying £5k worth of Annuals seed from France (!) http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/landscaping/40655-wildflower-seed-2.html but has opted now for a perennial native mix. Year 1's been a disaster; everyone was a bit surprised by the suggestion of including 80% grass in the mix. It looks like there's everything there except ryegrass!

The red and yellow poppies are Lidl's own and I added the remainder of a bag we used for a clients meadow.

I've mixed it with grass seed too as next year I will mow paths through to a circle in the middle.

That is IF we don't just cover the whole thing in wood chips as business continues to grow...

There'd be a lot of people short of a job or two on here if they did I've spent hours getting our lawn not to look like that but I don't mind some clover growing in it and the bees do tend to like it.

They surely would be short of work:001_smile: I am taking the scythe to mine soon as all the flowers have set seed.

a corker I came across at Ickworth today......
