  Try www.pictorialmeadows.co.uk

  They supplied a lot of the seed for the olympic stadium last year.

  Will try pctorialmeadows next year as I didn't have any success with most of
  
  the seeds I bought online or from garden centres this year. I plan to
  
  harvest lots of the seeds from the plug plants I resorted to buying and I don't think
  
  there is any harm in taking a few seed heads from those wildflowers
  
  you want to grow if you see them in the countryside but, as you probably know,
  
  you should never dig up wildflowers in the countryside.

  I took the dogs for a walk down by the river in late summer/autumn. I carry a paper bag and seeds of suitable species just fell into it.

  No uprooting of plants though!!!!
