The Hive @ Royal Botanic Gardens Kew
This year Wildflower Turf partnered with the Royal Botanic Gardens Kew to bring The Hive installation to life. Visitors to the attraction make their way through our lush and healthy wildflower meadow before entering the incredible 17 metre high structure that transports visitors to life inside a bee colony. This has to bee seen to be bee-lieved and entry to The Hive is included with Kew Garden Day Admission tickets.

Profihopper
All I (really) want for Christmas is a profihopper. The Amazone PH125 will do the job nicely, giving excellent results, and is perfect for mowing and scarifying parks, playgrounds, residential areas and environmental areas. With a unique collecting and compacting system this profihopper is perfectly suited for the care of all green spaces.

Raw Wildflower Honey
If all that mowing is making you hungry then look no further than Silver Frame’s raw wildflower honey. Medium sweet in taste and rich in antioxidants, a mere two spoonful’s a day is all it will take to help to build up pollen tolerance. It’s also quite tasty on toast.

Wildflower Turf Bee Hotel
On the subject of honey, bees play an incredibly important role in pollination and ensuring ecosystem equilibrium, but the number of bees in the UK is in decline. Our Bee Hotel is the perfect present for any nature lover, wildflower grower, fruit tree obsessive or anyone that wants to do their bit for bees.
