Attract Beneficial Insects with the Good Bug Seed Mix from Green Harvest
Green Harvest's Good Bug Seed Mix is a blend of flowers to attract, feed and shelter beneficial insects in your garden. Use as part of your natural pest management strategy, working with nature to create a balanced, healthy garden ecosystem. Planting 'insectary plants' in your garden has been proven to reduce pest outbreaks.
The packet includes colourful annual and perennial flower seeds such as marigold, cosmos, alyssum, red clover, Queen Anne's lace, dill, caraway, coriander, gypsophila, buckwheat and lucerne.
Enjoy blooms for most of the year round, and attract beneficial insects with a steady supply of nectar and pollen. The flower seeds have been specifically chosen to bring lacewings, ladybirds, hoverflies, predatory mites, predatory beetles, tachinid flies and micro wasps into your garden.
Sow seeds along the edge of garden beds and fence lines, or fill in empty patches in your garden that you're happy to go a little wild. Create a corridor of food for pollinators and beneficial insects and watch your garden brim with life. One packet covers approximately 10m², and you only need to plant 1-5% of your garden for great results.
Suitable for temperate and subtropical climates. Sow in spring an autumn.
