  hi Peter
  i ordered some much more expensive ones online!!! Then saw the box in wilko too so I’m now overloaded with seeds!!!! Going to use on my lawn this week, grow some in plugs, pots and also chance them in borders.....why the heck not!

  Do not fertilize for wild flowers, they prefer poor soil . If you  have a mix with grass in, use yellow rattle to curb the enthusiasm of the grass.
   If you don't want to strip off all the grass, using plug plants  in a matrix may be the way to go.
