About the Substrate

This revolutionary wildflower substrate isn’t your average soil. It’s been scientifically engineered and rigorously tested to be the perfect incubator for the wildflower seeds. Compared to traditional methods, this translates to a dramatically improved germination process, giving your wildflowers a head start and a fighting chance to thrive.

Our unique, 100% natural and peat-free formula slashes the full establishment time from years for traditional seeding, to just 3-18 months, depending on sowing season.

The secret lies in Hydropor™, our proprietary ingredient. It acts like a tiny sponge, ensuring seeds efficiently absorb water – the key to kickstarting germination. But it doesn’t stop there. This substrate is designed to maintain the perfect balance of pH and temperature, further optimizing seed growth.

And once your seeds sprout? The nutrient-rich formula in our substrate fuels strong root development and supports vibrant shoot growth, giving the wildflower the best start possible.

Ecological Impact:

Meadows are a type of grassland habitat, so by definition they should contain a good proportion of grasses. They play a vital role in offering structural support, texture, and ecological balance. Grasses will naturally colonise, however with good maintenance, you can control grasses to give a good balance.

Yellow Rattle’s hemi-parasitic nature weakens host grass species, preventing them from outcompeting wildflowers. By reducing grass dominance, Yellow Rattle ensures a diverse range of plant life, which is vital for a meadow’s overall health.
