Making a wildflower meadow, or even a wildflower 'area' is not as expensive as you might think, using our super-plugs. It really does depend on your plot size. This should help:

SMALL - My plot is no bigger than a single garage foot-print
MIDI - My plot is no bigger than a tennis court
LARGE - My plot is no bigger than half a soccer pitch (1 acre)
X-LARGE - My plot is bigger than this
