Stony, pale and stubbornly alkaline? Excellent. Chalky ground can be awkward for ordinary garden plants, but it is prime territory for some of Britain’s most characterful meadow species.

Planting

When to sow

For best results, sow from March to May or August to October.

Where to sow

Choose open, sunny, well drained chalky or alkaline ground. Clear away existing grass and weeds before sowing.

How to sow

Remove existing grass and weeds to expose bare soil. Lightly rake the surface, scatter the seed evenly, then gently press or tread it into the soil. Do not bury the seed deeply.

Sowing rate

5 g per m².

Measurements and timings are only a guide. Growing is not an exact science, so do not worry if everything is not perfectly placed.
Nurture

Keep damp during germination, then let rainfall do most of the work. Remove strong weeds and do not fertilise. Cut back after flowering and remove the cuttings.

butterflies, hoverflies and other visiting insects
