Product Description

The Tussocky Tall Grassland Mix contains a moderate diversity of fifteen wildflowers.

The grassland resembles the NVC habitat MG1 Grassland. It is suitable for moderate to high fertility circumneutral soils with low management inputs. Cutting once per year or even every other year in spring is often enough to maintain this sward. Maintaining areas of tussocky grassland and tall herbs after through rotational cutting will help to encourage small mammals populations and overwintering invertebrates. Ant mounds are often a major component of this type of habitat if left undisturbed which can help to attract Green Woodpeckers. The small mammals provide suitable foraging habitat for Barn Owls, a schedule 1 bird species.
