Build your own tapestry lawn
Single-species flowering plants to customise a bee lawn, tapestry lawn, or flowering meadow.
The short version
A tapestry or flowering lawn is built from individual low-growing bloomers you combine to taste. This collection gathers the ingredients — flowering clovers, thyme, and low wildflowers — so you can design your own blend.
What’s in the ingredients collection
Rather than a ready-made mix, this collection is about components: flowering clovers, creeping thyme, and low wildflower species you can combine into a custom flowering lawn. Choose species for bloom colour, season, and pollinator value, then sow them together or in drifts.
Several single-species ingredients (yarrow, self-heal, English daisy, and more) are joining this collection; in the meantime, the flowering clovers and thyme below are proven, available components.

Designing a flowering lawn
Start with a low base — clover or fine fescue — then layer in flowering species for colour and pollinator value across the seasons. Aim for a succession of bloom so something is always flowering.
Keep the lawn mown high and infrequently so flowers can open, and skip heavy feeding, which favours foliage over bloom.
Common questions
What is a tapestry lawn?
A lawn woven from several low, flowering species rather than a single grass — varied in colour and texture and rich for pollinators.
Can I add these to an existing lawn?
Yes — overseed low flowering species into thin turf, or start a fresh flowering lawn from scratch.
Are flowering lawns walkable?
Many are, especially clover and thyme; they are best for light to moderate foot traffic.
