Bees and Butterflies Summer Bulbs Mix

The bulbs have been selected specifically for their appeal to both bees & butterflies and is a wonderful top up within a wildflower nectar bar during the summer months.

This colourful bulb mix works beautifully with both the more subtle native wildflower Landscape 34 wildflower mixes or our more colourful Native Enriched wildflower mix.

This selection of bulbs flower May – August and all will grow to a substantial height that sees their flowers at the same level or slightly above the main flowering layer of the turf at that time. The tall straight stems provide an interesting structural perspective against the wispier nature of the wildflowers and provides a lovely design juxtaposition for artistic landscapes.

This selection of bulbs will also work in conjunction with the Spring mixes and ideally you could lay both types together for a succession of structure & colour.
