Narrative
- Multi annual and perennial species that just keep coming back
- Survives in shallow, free draining substrates
- Highly tolerant of changing weather patterns
Endurance is the result of three years of trials at Seed Research, Les Alleuds, France evaluating the survival of over one hundred individual plant species seeded onto shallow 10 cm or 20 cm of very free draining, lightweight compost/pumice/gravel mixes. No irrigation was applied after initial establishment. The mix contains self-seeding multi annual species (Forget-me-Not, English Marigold, Californian Poppy…), plus biennials and perennials that have staying power (Sweet William, Wild Lupin, Daisy, Siberian Wallflower…). Endurance has been specifically composed for situations that require a good floral display without the need to prepare and sow each year. It can be sown on a large variety of soil types including poor quality soils or stressed sites, slopes and heat traps as well as green roofs. Truly a perennial urban flower meadow that will endure.
