The first sign of delicate spring meadow flowers marks the ending of Winter.

The sun shines for longer and flowers bloom, adding colour and diversity. Each plant in the spring meadow has its unique method of attracting pollinating insets or distributing its seeds.

You can now bring this into your garden and outdoor space with our spring meadows collection…

Insect lover

In spring, butterflies arrive in the UK after a mind-boggling flight from Africa or southern Europe, and require food to revive them.

Likewise hoverflies, around 4 billion of them, arriving from Europe must find sustenance after their journey too.

And our native bees are busy feeding and building nests in the shelter of our gardens. With wildflower forage in decline (for instance 97%* of flower meadows have been lost), gardens are vital sources of nectar.
