Benefits
GFCA contains five native British annual wildflower species to create 'instant' colour and can be used to enrich existing grassland or provide additional first year colour to other wildflower meadows. The species included in this mixture create an attractive display from May to October and are selected for being fast growing, attractive and easy to establish.
Cornfield Annuals
Make the first cut in early March and a second cut once the flowering period is over - September/October Harrow autumn or spring to regenerate annuals
Second Year
Depending on your sowing preference, cultivate the ground and reseed in September or March.
Over several years of reseeding, a rich seed bank will develop and simply disturbing the soil again in early spring will be sufficient to regenerate the flowers each year.
Time of Year
The resulting flowers are highly influenced by the time of sowing. A Spring sowing is likely to favour Corn Marigold and Corn Chamomile, whereas an autumn sowing favours Poppy, Cornflower and Corn Cockle.
