The Kew Pollinators range of seeds from Thompson and Morgan has been specially created alongside the experts at Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew to attract and support a wide range of pollinators, including bees, butterflies and beetles, as well as a number of other important pollinating insects. Helping these pollinators to thrive is hugely important for our eco-system as a whole and these seeds, in their striking packaging inspired by artwork from the Kew archives, will help to create the environment which they need to thrive, with varieties chosen to help a wide range of pollinating insects, including some night flowering plants to help moths which also play an important part in our gardens.

Commonly known as Night-flowering Catchfly, this pretty wildflower is a magnet for moths in late summer. The delicate blooms release their perfume in the evenings to attract these pollinating insects. Silene noctiflora is a dainty annual that blends effortlessly with Scabious, Cranesbill and other meadow wildflowers. Once established it will seed about, with the seed remaining viable in the soil for many years. A great choice for gardens on chalky soils, especially as part of a wildlife planting scheme or meadow. Height and spread: 40cm (16”).
