Nature's Lawn

For Gardeners Wanting a Usable Lawn with Wildflowers

Nature’s Lawn is a mixture of lawn grasses and UK native perennial wildflowers that tolerate mowing. Nature’s Lawn offers versatile mowing heights, ideally ranging from 50mm to 150mm, to suit your preferences for lawn usability and biodiversity. By adding wildflowers to your lawn, you’ll attract pollinators like butterflies and bumblebees. Over time these flowers will self seed and increase their numbers to create a stunning natural lawn. To maximise the benefit of these f lowers we recommend raising the cut on your lawn and maybe in some areas cutting infrequently. Nature’s Lawn is drought and shade tolerant and does not require feeding. The grasses in this mixture are all slow growing comprising of: Strong Creeping Red Fescue, Chewings Fescue, Hard Fescue, Smooth Stalk Meadow Grass and Crested Dogstail.

  • Birdsfoot Trefoil
