Wildflower - Yellow Rattle - 1200 Seeds

I was intrigued of the idea of a native plant that parasitically grows on the grass.I have a small patch of grass that i leave to grow naturally, so i was keen to try the Yellow Rattler. ( its name comes from the fact that the seed pods rattled and that would tell the farmer that it was time to cut the hay. I planted the seeds in late august, i would have waited but that wasn't practical. i firmly trampled the seeds in and waited for the cold weather. its now nearly a year on I've two good clumps of plants which certainly have had a visible effect on the grass. The plants are definitely Yellow rattler and Im hoping that that they self seed for next year. I might have expected more plants but no hesitation in recommending this to any one who wants to try some thing a little different

Fine as seeds go, not a lot more I can say.

Seeds arrived promptly and looking forward to see results. Quality of seed looked good and if germinate will be value for money.

I planted them okay but only a couple grew

I sowed these seeds in Autumn 2020 in a patch of garden I am converting into a wildflower area. They germinated really well in the spring and made a good display of flowers through summer together with other wild flowers. I am waiting to see if they have spread and established this spring.

They have NOT flowered YET

Hope they germinate

Too early to say. We have had NO. Rain for ages, so not the time to sow the seeds.Hoping they will be fine in our wild flower meadow.still never germinated. so disappointing
