Birdsfoot Trefoil Native Wildflower Seeds

Transform your garden or wildflower meadow with our Birdsfoot Trefoil Seeds, a beautiful native wildflower that produces clusters of bright yellow, pea-like flowers throughout the summer. A favourite of bees, butterflies and other pollinators, Birdsfoot Trefoil is one of the most valuable wildflowers for supporting biodiversity and creating a thriving wildlife habitat.

Often referred to as "eggs and bacon" because the flowers can develop attractive orange-red buds, Birdsfoot Trefoil adds cheerful colour and natural charm to wildflower meadows, borders and pollinator-friendly gardens. It is also the primary food plant for the caterpillars of several butterfly species, making it an essential addition to any wildlife garden.

Easy to grow and highly adaptable, Birdsfoot Trefoil thrives in poor soils where many other plants struggle. As a nitrogen-fixing plant, it also helps improve soil health naturally, making it an excellent choice for sustainable gardening and meadow restoration projects.

For the best results, sow Birdsfoot Trefoil Seeds outdoors from March to May or August to September. Sow in a sunny position on well-drained, low-fertility soil, lightly press the seeds into the surface, and keep the area moist until germination. Avoid overly rich soils, as this can reduce flowering.

Seed Revolution is a seed producer based in England, which started as a quest to save Britain’s natural beauty. Our nation’s biodiversity is diminishing at a rate of knots. Without wild flowers we have no bees. With no bees we have no food. No food and we’re all doomed. But the solution is easy, and full of beauty. Grow wild flowers. Save bees. Rescue humanity. Welcome to the revolution.
