Wildflower Meadow. How to create a wildflower meadow for bees. 

You have grown beautiful wildflowers! And, no shade, your voice is perfect for falling asleep to. You should consider voicing bedtime stories.

I’m just blown away, I really want to create a wildflower meadow this year I already have two ponds and I live on an estate! We feed the birds daily and utilise our garden as much as we can for wildlife. This has motivated me to buy some sand and seeds. Thank you!

I'm probably as excited as you are; that was a great reveal! Aldi Ambassador - great stuff.

I LOVE your approach Spectacular ! Wonderful vision along with a hands on approach, fully engaged with shovel, wheelbarrow, sweat equity and certainly heart, wonderful ! My shovel, wheelbarrow and vision have my garden, hardscape and body good and healthy and happy beyond words. My determination and will have been creating here on our land for decades, zero heavy equipment and on a substantial slope of a mountainside at that. A lifestyle to be fully engaged with your land is to honor and deeply respected in my opinion. Way to go as you enjoy the beauty that you've been creating.....

Now that my husband has forgotten how to run the mower I can start changing our acre of lawn into a wildflower meadow. ❤

I love wildflower gardens/meadows because not only are they beautiful, but they are also good for the area.

so inspiring. so beautiful.

meadow looks great

I'm digging my own wildlife pond in sandy soil at the moment. Its satisfying doing it by hand! It's going to be a 4 meter circle, covered in pebbles. I'm struggling to create shelves so I'm creating a beach all the way around the pond, and plant the plants into the pebbles and gravel. I'm exited to to see how yours turns out!!

Very impressive results ... well done.

I could leap for joy!! I'm doing this!!

Thank you for making such a lovely and inspiring video 😊 I can’t wait to try this! It’s always so nice seeing people make the effort to help out nature

Hi Mark, your wild flowers look gorgeous, I shop in Aldi so will be keeping an eye open in future. I like your channel very much. We moved three years ago to a bungalow with a fairly large garden, so I'm after all the tips and tricks I can get..lol. See you in the next one bye.

wonderful stuff Mark, I love your videos!

I love your wildflowers! Highly motivating!

What a marvelous meadow!!😍🌸 It turned out magnificent. Also, it's nice to see how much you truly care about a wildlife and insects. The world needs more people like you 👍 Keep it up.

SO beautiful!

Very inspiring! I'm making plans to do this in my garden this year.

Great idea about mixing the seeds in sand and then raking them in the dirt!

GREAT JOB..hello from ..Nova Scotia

What a beautiful meadow! But remember to sow natives as it’s not just flowers that native species need but food for their larvae and to get lots of perennials so you will only have to sow them once!

Beautiful just beautiful !

This is beyond amazing and inspirational! We will be doing the same soon. Thanks for the video.

Nice wild flower garden, looking to arrange a wild flower garden myself and I'd be very happy if it turned out so well.

I would be tempted to borrow the digger from next door! ! Wild flowers look great. 😊

Beautiful!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Looks great , planted out a 2 meter swuare patch in wildflower today hopefully ill have as much success with mine !!

Stunning flowers

This is what I wanted for ours, our patch is a similar size. We bought wild flower seed mats which were expensive about £30-£40 and didn’t deliver anything really. A handful of flowers. I will be looking out for that box in Aldi next year!

Love it ❤

Beautiful 👏🏼

Outstanding!

This is awesome

Love this!

Thanks. I live in the tropics in Australia and I am planting wildflower meadows which is difficult due to brush turkeys but it is happening!

I love a Tudor cottage

Lovely, indeed! Something akin to what we have in Namaqualand every spring - except that your flowers last much longer.

Wow!

Yes, it will be a fortune to buy all those plants. It looks really beautiful swaying in the breeze. What is the burgundy shrub next to the white buddlia?

That's great! I have seeds for a big area now and will hopefully get a meadow going this spring! Hoping for results this summer! In what month did you sow the seeds? I am in Norway but in a mild zone.

Hi, what fertilizer did u use for the flowers, how many times per week and do you get new flowers after they die or did you buy another package of seeds? Thank you

It looks lovely. Where did you get the seeds please?

Hi . What month did you sow the seeds ? Im in the uk and wanting to try this for next summer. Cheers

Does this wildflower meadow attract birds who eat the insects?

Hi, can I start to create a wildflower area now in October? We have an old patch of lawn that is full of dandelions and ribwort plantain, I’d like to cut it all really low, then cultivate it so it all churns up.. then hopefully put some wildflower seed down with yellow rattle. Can anybody advise? Thank you!

0:00 hello.

What month did you put the wildflower seeds down ?

Please only use local or at least national provenance seeds and not ALDI seeds - you will dilute out the local genetics which have evolved for the local ecosystem.

Hi you said you had yellow rattle in your meadow yet that wasn't on the list? Was this something you added separately to the meadow. Thanks

Really nice but be aware that Buddleia are not as great as they seem for pollinators , they can be invasive and the nectar isn't really efficient as a food for insects .

I dont get it l do evrything for them, groumd, Sun place... They dont grow... But just leave One forgoten seed and its like hey hello how are u l gonna live here 😂
