- Aesthetically pleasing: Enjoy a changing palette of colours for months on end, depending on the types of flowers you choose.

- Choose the right location: Flower meadows thrive best in a sunny spot.
- Prepare the soil: Remove weeds and rake the soil loose for optimal germination.
- Sow at the right time: The best time to sow flower meadow seeds is in spring (March to May) or autumn (September to October).
- Spread the seed evenly: Use a spreader or sow by hand for a natural effect.
- Lightly rake in: The flower meadow seeds should be covered by a few millimetres at most.
- Watering: Especially in the first weeks after sowing, regular watering is important.

Maintenance of a flower meadow
By the way, you don't need to fertilise a flower meadow. Flower meadow seed does best on poor soil. A flower meadow does not require much maintenance. A perennial flower meadow is mowed barely once in the first year. From the second year, it is advisable to mow twice a year. It is best to leave the clippings for a few days so that the ripe seeds can fall off and you can make the most of the new seeds. Afterwards, rake the clippings together so that they do not start to act as mulch. You will thus prevent soil enrichment as a flower meadow needs poor soil.
