The Impact Dry Wildflower Mix is a carefully selected blend of native UK wildflowers specially formulated to thrive in dry, free-draining, and low-nutrient soils. Designed for landscaping professionals, local authorities, ecological planners, and schools, this mix delivers reliable, long-lasting floral displays in environments where other wildflowers may struggle. It’s ideal for embankments, verges, brownfield sites, chalky soils, and urban green infrastructure projects that require resilience without compromising biodiversity.
This perennial mix includes drought-tolerant species that provide vibrant colour and essential support for bees, butterflies, hoverflies, and other pollinators. With species that flower in succession, it ensures seasonal interest from spring to autumn while demanding very little in terms of maintenance or soil enrichment.
