Pollination Seed Mix

This Pollination Mix brings together 25 species of perennial and annual plants specially selected for their ability to attract and feed pollinating insects, which helps increase fruit production in the orchard or vegetable garden. Easy to grow in ordinary soil and requiring very little maintenance, they can be sown directly in place in spring, or even in autumn in mild climates, in a sunny, well-prepared and loosened soil. Their flowering extends from spring to the end of summer, covering the entire flowering period of fruit trees and fruit vegetables. The flower bed thus created will bloom for several years and also provide a refuge for biodiversity. Some plants will self-sow wherever they please.

Attracted by the nectar, pollinating insects will forage on the flowers in this mix. They will naturally pollinate your fruit trees and vegetable plants thanks to the pollen deposited on their bodies. Better pollination will increase the potential harvest of fruits and vegetables (in quantity and quality!). In this mix, you will find plants such as Echium, Dill, Corn Marigold, and Ammi majus, etc., all species that are favourable to many useful pollinating insects. All these plants show rather rapid growth and easily naturalise in the garden, in ordinary and well-draining soil. The size of the plants ranges from 30 cm (11.8 in) to 80 cm (31.5 in) in height.

A meadow of flowers is very trendy, combining usefulness with pleasure, blooming throughout the summer season and requiring very little maintenance. Watering, if the weather is very dry, and mowing to a height of 10 cm (3.9 in) in autumn will be sufficient. Invite nature into your garden: sow our flower mixes along pathways, near the vegetable garden, or on the slope bordering a sunken path, close to your fruit trees, or in the back of the garden at the border with the countryside.
