i have never sown wildflowers before, but i know with most hardy annuals it is still a little bit early, i usually sow poppy, stock, antirrinhum, sweet pea ect direct into beds late march early april, and they always reach there full potential in time, so its up to you. i already have some wild flowers - or weeds as they are better known to me! lol coming up! so it really depends on what ones you are growing it think!

I agree with majeeka - it's a bit too early as yet. There my well be more frosts - be patient and wait a few more weeks.

I SOW WILD FLOWER MIX EVERY YEAR AND USUALLY START IN MID MARCH ,ONLY THING TO REMEMBER IS JUST WATER IN AND LET THE SEEDS DO THE REST ..DONT FORGET ITS IN A PLANTS NATURE TO GROW ,SO DONT FUSS OVER THEM..GOOD LUCK.
