Pronto Seed Wildflower Seed Shaker Twin Pack Butterfly and Bee Attracting Naturalising Wild Flower Easy to Grow Giant Seed Shakers Twin Pack. Ideal to Help Save Our Pollinators

Product Information

Each seed shaker contains a mixture of flower seeds, chosen to attract pollinators into the garden and create a colourful floral display all season long.

When seedlings are large enough to handle, they can be thinned out and kept at a moderate temperature until they are ready to transplant outdoors from April. Finally, water the whole area well, ensuring that the ground is moist to touch but not waterlogged. The product doesn’t come with a spreader or even holes in the side of the box. It has just one large hole, so if you don’t own a seed spreader, you’ll have to either tip the box up or use your hands. This is far from ideal, and it would be much better if the box had a series of holes in the side so the seeds could be sprinkled more accurately. Divide the area that you want to sow into easily manageable sections. A soft, warm, moist, soil is best for seed germination.

Water well with a light spray. Keep the soil moist until new lawn is well-rooted but take care not to wash seeds away! Continue to water as needed, and if the seedlings begin to move towards the light, then turn each day to avoid ‘leggy’ stems.
