Green Manure Phacelia tanacetifolia Seeds
Delivered in 3-5 days
Total
Winter hardy with vigorous and highly branched roots that help break down compacted soil, phacelia produces dense foliage and attractive flowers - a magnet for bumble bees and beneficial insects. As it decomposes valuable minerals are released, including phosphorus, calcium and magnesium as well as high levels of nitrogen. Planted in the autumn it can also help to reduce nitrate leaching.
The incorporation of green plant tissue into the soil is an ancient practice known as ‘green manuring’. Green Manures are used to disrupt pest and disease life cycles, improve soil fertility and nutrient levels and suppress weeds.
Covers approx. 20sq.m (24sq. yards)

Delivery Information
Seed only orders
Postage & Packing (P&P) on seed only orders is just £1.95.
Non-seed items
A single £4.95 postage and packaging charge per order no matter how many items are ordered (to one address - UK only).
(i.e. plants, bulbs, potatoes, garlic, onion sets, shallots and garden equipment)
Orders containing a mix of seed and non-seed items
For orders containing a mix of seed and non-seed items a combined postage charge (£6.90 - £1.95 to cover the seed items and £4.95 to cover the cost of non-seed items) will apply. This is due to the vast majority of live products, hardware and seed items being sent out from separate warehouses and the costs involved.
