Description

Support your local pollinators with our Nectar-Rich Flower Seed Mix, a carefully curated selection of flowers designed to provide essential nectar and pollen for bees, butterflies, and other vital pollinators. You don’t need a large space to make a difference—just a small patch in your garden can help create a thriving environment for these important species. Planting pollinator-friendly flowers not only enhances the beauty of your outdoor space but also contributes to the overall health of local ecosystems.

Imagine if every garden in Barnsley had a dedicated 1m² area for pollinator plants, and if just 10% of the council’s grass verges were transformed into pollinator patches. This small effort would result in a significant boost to local pollinator populations, helping to combat the decline of bees and other pollinating insects.

At Staincross Apiaries, we’ve made it easy to get started with our Nectar-Rich Flower Seed Mix. This simple mix contains some of the best flowers for pollinators, ensuring that your garden provides a reliable food source throughout the growing season. Each pack contains:

• Borage: Known for its prolific nectar production, borage is a favourite among bees.
• Phacelia: A hardy flower that attracts a wide range of pollinators with its abundant nectar.
• Linseed: Not only useful for its seeds, but linseed also provides nectar that attracts a variety of pollinators.
• Sunflower: These bright, towering flowers are not only beautiful but also a rich source of pollen.
• Sainfoin: A nutritious plant that offers both nectar and pollen, highly attractive to bees and butterflies.

By planting these seeds, you’ll create a mini haven for pollinators, ensuring they have the resources they need to thrive. It’s an easy, affordable, and effective way to contribute to the health of local ecosystems while enjoying the beauty of a flower-filled garden.
