There was a high cornflower quotient in last night's Bees, Butterflies and Blooms programme, and I was very taken with the wild flower seed mixes Sarah Raven was trialling in her own garden. I think I'll be buying some of the Pastel Annual Mix she sowed to such lovely effect, but after watching the series, reading Sarah's book, and grasping the importance of planting for the pollinators, I'm determined to give over more space in my garden to the likes of these plants.
