It's not all native, but it's very wildflower friendly and it served the purpose of making a statement at the time.
And we're learning as we go.
Now, the next phase of that, we said, we're not putting in anything non-native.
We're going to let native plants see themselves naturally.

And yellow rattle is a parasitic flower that eats other root systems around it to help with nutrients.
And they call it the meadow maker.
So we threw a bit of that in.
let the grass grow.

Is it taking care of like... It's taking the grass away mainly and that allows patches for the dandelion seed, for the comfrey, for tree foil, for all these little plants, native plants to get in and get a bit of light on and start growing.
