GROWING GUIDE

Sow in autumn or early spring at a rate of 1g/m2.

Prepare the ground
• Mow grass very short
• Remove perennial weeds
• Thin grass and create some bare patches/strips by raking or with organic weedkiller

Sowing
• Seed can be mixed with dry sand or compost to make it easier to sow evenly
• Roll or tread by foot to press seeds into the soil
• In very dry weather, water the area with a fine spray

Maintenance
• Remove any obvious weeds as they appear
• Keep area well watered in dry weather
• Do not mow from spring to early autumn until plants have set seed. Mow as normal until early spring when new plants will emerge.
