Wildflower meadow plants will always be part of Weeds and other unwanted species, as nature tries her best to follow natural succession. As you weed an existing meadow, sow seeds of the original mix or annuals in the spaces left bare.

By the third year, a mature look will be appearing to your meadow and the perennials should be well established.
