HOW WE RATE A WILDFLOWER MEADOW - month by month

Many of our customers ask the question..."what is the best month for a wildflower meadow", and in particular "when do they fade/need cutting".

This post captures much of what has already been said in earlier blogs, but perhaps is easier on the eye!

Grade A = stunning/at it's best

Grade B = looks good

Grade C = before/past it's best

Dormant = Dec-Feb
