Heritage Mix Turf

Heritage Mix Turf

With 90% native wildflowers and just 5% grass in the seedmix, Heritage Mix Turf creates a self-sufficient wildlife-friendly landscaping feature that requires very little annual maintenance.
Ideal for nutrient-poor soils, this product was originally developed to increase biodiversity in ecologically challenged areas such as on living roofs. However, it has also proved its worth as a landscaping material too.
Like most of the wildflower turf types available to order online from Arbour Landscape Solutions, Heritage Mix is easy to install and will establish quickly provided it is kept well watered.

Where to Grow Heritage Mix Turf – Soil Type and Aspect

Full sun in well-drained, nutrient-poor soil.

For green roof applications: Please install onto at least 150mm depth of green roof substrate.

Please note: Whilst standard garden topsoil will support Heritage Mix Wildflower Turf the higher nutrient levels will tend to promote extra-strong growth in the grasses. To keep the species balance mainly floral, we recommend installing onto subsoil or Low Fertility Soil. Need help sourcing the right growing medium? Get in touch for prices and availability

Key Points

• Flowering Time: March – October (depending on local weather conditions).
• Your Heritage Mix Turf may be mown before harvest, dependant on the time of year.
• Depending on the time of year it can take a few weeks for plants to establish, grow and start blooming. If you would like it to flower in its first summer we recommend installing Heritage Mix Flower Turf before the end of March.
• If installing on a roof you may need mechanical lifting gear to as rolls can be quite heavy.
• For rooftop applications, please install your Heritage Mix Wild Turf on to a good green roof substrate at least 150mm deep.
• Each of the species will respond differently to soil type, local weather conditions and care regimes. In fact the balance of species changes from year to year which means that your wildflower area will continue to fascinate you more with every season.
