  A collection of four native wildflowers forming a tapestry of bright yellow, red, rose-pink and white from April to July. This wildflower border collection includes both spreading, procumbent and taller, slender species. It's perfect for creating a colourful wildflower border for difficult areas of the garden with poor, well-drained soil and for attracting beneficial wildlife.

• Garden care: When sowing seeds do not use a fertiliser since wildflowers prefer poor soils. Deadhead regularly to prolong flowering. In autumn cut the faded flowerheads down to the ground and compost the dead stems.
