Introducing the Bird Mix, a blend of wildflowers meticulously crafted to attract birds to your garden, providing them with nourishing seeds and insects. With over 50% decline in many common UK garden bird species over the last 45 years, according to the RSPB, it's crucial to create habitats and food sources for our avian friends.
This Bird Mix offers a sustainable alternative to purchasing bagged bird feed, as the carefully selected plants serve as a natural food source. This thoughtful selection of flora will enhance the food supply for a diverse array of birds, including goldfinches, blue tits, chaffinches, greenfinches, robins, and starlings, fostering an increase in bird activity within your garden.
While in bloom, the flowers will attract insects, a vital component of many birds' diets, while the birds themselves will feast directly on the plants and seeds. By planting our Bird Mix, you'll be contributing to the well-being and vitality of your local bird population while enjoying the beauty of a flourishing garden.
This seed ball acts as a protective barrier, safeguarding the seeds from being consumed by birds and insects, thus enhancing the likelihood of successful flower growth. Additionally, they're incredibly simple to use, requiring no digging or specialised knowledge!
Simply scatter the seed balls onto soil or compost within a garden bed or planter during Spring or Autumn, ensuring there's a minimum of 10cm between each ball. Your Seedball contains all the necessary nutrients to grow, and once the ball becomes moist and the temperature is suitable, your seeds will begin to germinate!
Every purchase you make supports St. Martin's and the valuable work we undertake.
