Planting wildflowers in the garden has been a popular trend for a few years now and it's not going away anytime soon. But results can be mixed if you don't take an organised approach. So instead of replacing wildflower planting itself what's changing is how you plant them, with the latest trend offering a more structured way to integrate beautiful, native wildflowers into your garden.
There was a popular conception until recently that you could adopt a haphazard approach and cast wildflower seeds over a wide area, just as happens in nature, with a view to getting a good mix of different varieties. But this tends to lead to poor results so now we're seeing a shift away from chaos gardening ideas like this and instead working wildflowers into your garden aesthetic so the result looks more curated.
