Wildflower sites
Flint: Swinchiard Rec
Site managed by Flintshire County Council - Streetscene
Flint, Flintshire
1000m² / 800m²
Two perennial meadows were created on the urban green space near Swinchiard Brook using wildflower turf. These wildflower areas were created in 2020 using wildflower turf ltd’s native enriched turf. During the summer months you should be able to spot some of the following species.
These wildflower sites are usually managed through one cut and collect a year between August and October. It is essential that cuttings are collected and removed. This reduces fertility and subsequently; the ‘vigour’ of the grasses year on year, which favours the continued establishment of perennial flowering species.
