About the species mix:
Achieve your UKHab Other Neutral Grassland (g3a) goals with our specialised seed mix, designed for Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) projects.
This mix is meticulously formulated using key UKHab indicator species, ensuring compliance and a thriving, biodiverse habitat.
We use high quality, UK provenance seed, guaranteeing excellent germination and robust growth.
About Meadowscape Pro™
Meadowscape Pro™, also known as ‘Meadow in a bag’, is a scientifically engineering pre-seeded growing medium designed to establish thriving new wildflower habitats.
The product offers superior germination and establishment rates compared to traditional wildflower seeding methods. You will experience a significantly faster time to full establishment – typically 3-12 months depending on the season on installation. This is a substantial improvement over 3-5 years often required for traditional seeding methods.

The implementation of Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) in England has significant implications for Landscape Contractors, particularly concerning their liability in ensuring the successful installation, establishment and long-term maintenance of BNG projects.
Landscape contractors are responsible for sourcing materials that meet the ecological and specified requirements of the BNG project. This includes ensuring that species are appropriate for the target grassland habitat and that materials are of high quality.
