There were at one time, thousands of acres of natural wildflower meadows in our countryside, but sadly, due in part to modern methods of farming, that is a thing of the past.
Wildflower meadows can be large or small – even a small patch of ground or part of a border can be transformed into an attractive and valuable pollinator-friendly mix of grasses and wildflowers. This can be fitted easily into most gardens and is a good starting option. But if you have the space, a large wildflower meadow can look spectacular.
