Spring is finally here!

Well, it seems to have been a long time coming, but spring is finally here. The trees are at their greenest and the time for sowing seeds is coming towards an end. Our proven flower mixes continue to delight throughout the UK, for instance, on the Island of Jersey and at Fulham Palace, London,  providing a spectacular pop of colour for locals and visitors alike. It's great to have such good feedback, and we would like to thank all our regular customers for their continued support.

And our new specially designed native seed mixes have been proving popular too - e.g. Haywards Heath town council are using our new Highways mix on verges around the town, so look out for roadsides full of wildflowers later in the year, helping support our pollinators.

Our work can also be seen in a new book; we were asked to supply photographs for ‘New Wild Garden’, by Ian Hodgson, published by Frances Lincoln, so look out for shots of our flower mixes in all their glory.




And speaking of books, see below for a chance to win a copy of 'The Bee Book', co-authored by our very own Steve Alton.
