Description

This Meadow Flower Vegetable Garden Mix combines 24 species of perennial or annual plants, intended to create a long-lasting flower bed that persists for several years. Used by professionals to restore ecological balance and naturally combat pests, it is planted near the vegetable garden. The flowers attract insects like aphids, as well as their predators like ladybirds. An effective way to keep undesirables out of the vegetable garden. The seeds are sown in spring or late summer, directly in place, in the sun, in freshly weeded, worked and loosened soil. The flower bed will bloom for several years and provide an excellent refuge for biodiversity.

In this mix, you will find plants such as Chrysanthemum leucanthemum, Centaurea cyanus, Ammi majus, and Chrysanthemum segetum. All these plants show rather rapid growth and easily naturalise in the garden, in ordinary and well-drained soil. Not demanding in terms of soil, they adapt to ordinary garden soil that is neither too dry nor waterlogged. The flowering period extends from April to September from the second year of cultivation. A packet of seeds covers approximately 3 square metres (32 square feet). The plants range in height from 40 to 70 cm (15.7 to 27.6 in).

Meadow flowers are very trendy and combine utility with pleasure: they contribute to protecting biodiversity, bloom throughout the summer season, and require very little maintenance. Watering will be more than sufficient if the weather is extremely dry. 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 countryside border.

Planting and care

Sowing:

Sow directly in place, from March to early June, once the soil has warmed up, or in September-October, in well-prepared soil that has been cleared of weeds and raked. Sow finely on the surface of the soil by broadcasting, then lightly rake to cover the seeds. Roll or tamp the soil with the back of a shovel. Water and keep moist until germination. Alternatively, sow at a depth of 1.5 mm (0.1 in) in furrows spaced 30 cm (11.8 in) apart. Germination normally takes 14 to 30 days.

Cultivation:

When the young plants appear, water well and remove weeds. In autumn, at the end of flowering, you can collect seeds and sow them elsewhere. Water well to make the seeds adhere to the soil. Once the plants are well established, water your flower bed only in case of prolonged drought.
