Native Grass Seed Selection

The Native Grass Seed Selection is a carefully chosen blend of fine-leaved, non-invasive grass species suited to UK conditions and compatible with native wildflower establishment. The mix includes Hard Fescue, Slender and Strong Creeping Red Fescue, Timothy, Chewing’s Fescue, Smooth-stalked Meadow Grass, Sheep’s Fescue, Tall Oatgrass, and Meadow Foxtail.

These grasses form the structural sward matrix of a traditional hay meadow — they are non-aggressive species that coexist with wildflowers rather than outcompeting them, provided soil fertility is kept low through annual late-summer cutting and cuttings removal. They provide year-round ground cover, improve soil stability, and create the layered habitat structure that benefits ground-nesting invertebrates and small mammals.

Use as a companion to any of the Wildahome 100% wildflower mixes to build a full grass-and-flower meadow, or as a standalone grass establishment mix for conservation and habitat projects. Suitable for most UK soil types. Sow at 3–5g per square metre alongside wildflower seed, or up to 8g per square metre as a standalone grass mix.

Sourced and selected for UK growing conditions. Non-invasive, low-maintenance, wildlife-friendly.
