April is one of the best times to sow wildflower seeds, thanks to warmer temperatures, increased daylight, and natural moisture in the soil. Whether you're looking to enhance biodiversity, attract pollinators, or create a stunning, low-maintenance landscape, wildflowers are a fantastic choice.

At Greenfields, we specialise in professional wildflower seeding, helping businesses, councils, and landowners establish vibrant, thriving meadows. With expert preparation and the right seed mix, we ensure long-lasting results that support local ecosystems and enhance outdoor spaces.

Why Sow Wildflower Seeds in April?

Spring provides the perfect conditions for wildflower seeds to germinate successfully. Here’s why April is an ideal time to sow:

Optimal Soil Conditions – The soil is warming up, making it easier for seeds to establish strong roots.
More Daylight Hours – Longer days mean more sunlight, which supports healthy growth.
Natural Rainfall – April showers help keep the soil moist, giving seeds the best chance to sprout.
Boosts Biodiversity – Wildflowers attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, improving local ecosystems.
Low-Maintenance Beauty – Once established, wildflower meadows require minimal upkeep while providing seasonal colour and texture.

Choosing the Right Wildflower Mix

Different seed mixes suit different environments. Some are designed for attracting pollinators, while others thrive in shaded areas or nutrient-poor soils. At Greenfields, we carefully select seed blends that match your landscape, soil type, and desired aesthetic. From vibrant meadow flowers to delicate woodland varieties, we ensure the perfect mix for your space.
