Seeds and Grass Care
We do offer some of our products in smaller bags, these include Drought Repair Grass Seed and Patch and Repair Grass Seed. Most of our Agricultural and Equine seed is sold in 1 acre packs and Lawn & Grass seed is sold in 10kg and 20kg quantities.
Our Wildflower seed comes in smaller bags because it only takes a small quantity to cover an area.
All of our seed is packed in tear-resistant polypropylene sacks. The sacks are resistant to damage during shipping.
We recommend using your seed within 2 years of purchase. As long as it is stored correctly in a cool and dry place, grass seed is often usable for several years. All of our grass seed bags are sealed with a green DEFRA label detailing mixture information and the date it was sealed.
Some of our seed mixtures can start to germinate within 3-4 days in perfect conditions. However, 7-10 days is the average. Some species of seed can take a little longer to germinate, so we recommend allowing up to 14 days.
Yes, we can produce bespoke mixtures from our wide range of seed species.
The minimum order weights for bespoke mixes are:
Grass seed: 120kg
Wildflower mixes: 5kg
