This wild flower plug collection consists of perennial, biennial and annual wild flower plugs plants which are attractive to bees and other nectar seeking insects. Urbanisation & modern agricultural practices have destroyed much of the native vegetation which provided nectar and pollen for our native bees and contributed to the decline of several species of bumble bee over the last few decades. The plugs are young plants, not seedlings, with a good rootstock and should be planted out into a suitable location as soon as you receive them. The collection will be selected from the best quality plants available at the time of your order. You will receive at least 6 different varieties (ie 2 of each when ordering 12 plugs etc).
