Wildflowers

Plant a Wildflower Meadow

This is a step up from the simple wildflower patch described in the previous section. Again, it's very important to note that this action should only be taken after trying the Let it Grow project. It won't suit every school due to space restrictions. As with all the wildflower actions it will bring a fascinating range of flowers into the school, support visiting pollinating insects and of course stop wasting time through constant grass cutting!

Again, just to repeat the important point, only buy native, organic, Irish grown seed. ​The National Biodiversity Data Centre have put together a great leaflet to take you through the process step-by-step here.
