Sensation

The original and most popular of our short flower meadows. Sensation has a very long and intense flowering season full of contrasting whites, yellows and pinks. This easy to grow mixture is particularly popular for small flower beds around the house, providing a brightness and harmony of colours.

A colourful collection of dwarf annual and perennial cottage garden favourites, chosen for their value to wildlife and combined to create drifts of meadowy blooms. Successive flowering over several months will provide a continuous food source for pollinators. Sow directly onto prepared soil. Perfect for wildlife gardens, community spaces and urban ecology.
