English Meadows Pasture Blend 950g

How to Grow:

Sow 10mm below the surface by scratching up the soil, using 25 to 40g per square metre. The optimal time to sow is in Autumn, or late spring. Warm temperatures and a wet soil bed will help this blend establish best.

Whilst this blend is designed to persist, we encourage you to water during dry spells and sow around the break of the season (Autumn).

Fertilise when sowing with high nitrogen and phosphorus based fertiliser. This will assist in early leaf development and root growth. Approximately 100g per square metre.

How to Mulch English Meadows if the Planting Looks Fatigued

If your English Meadows blend begins to look tired after a long flowering period, you can rejuvenate the bed by mulching the foliage back into the soil. This returns valuable organic matter and prepares the area for the next cycle of growth.

1. Cut the plants back to 10–15 cm above the soil

Use secateurs, shears, or a whipper snipper. Cutting rather than pulling preserves root channels and soil structure.

2. Leave the cut material on the surface as mulch

Spread it evenly. This helps protect the soil, retain moisture, and feed microbes as it breaks down.

3. Water the mulch layer thoroughly

Moisture speeds decomposition and activates soil biology. Aim for a slow, deep soak.

4. Allow 2–3 weeks for breakdown

During this time the material will soften, settle, and begin feeding the soil. You’ll often see earthworms pulling it below the surface.

5. Option to resow or leave to regrow

-Resow if you want a fresh, dense flowering display.

- Let it regrow if some perennial species remain active (e.g., clovers, chicory, cocksfoot).

6. For faster recovery, top-dress lightly with compost before resowing

A thin layer (5–10 mm) boosts biological activity and supports germination.
