Andi ChorleyYellow rattle growing in grassland on the banks of the Irwell in Salford.
Rob GalpinYellow rattle flowering in my mini-meadow! It's taken three years to really establish. I wonder if the drought has helped it a bit as the grass is considerably weakened this year. #allotment #allotmentGarden #meadow #minimeadow #yellowrattle #wildflower
PhoenixSerenity#YellowRattle is used proactively to create & restore wildflower meadows, where it aids #biodiversity by suppressing dominant grasses & recycling of #soil nutrients. This improves chances of other species of wildflowers becoming established.

JeniParsonsThe meadow was cut last night ready for baling and wrapping as haylage today. Sad not to make hay but the weather is too wet #cymru #YellowRattle #meadow
neutronwrangler#meadow is this yellow rattle? Herefordshire wild garden
I AmAnitaI came home after a holiday to find our front garden looking rather spectacular despite several weeks without rain. I rather hope the neighbours are viewing their short brown grass and wishing they’d left the mower in the shed #meadow #wildflowers #YellowRattle #gardening
AgrimonySpikes@bitheolaidhe excellent blog Jake. And thanks for boosting @MarkusWagner I'm trying to rehabilitating rank #grassland into a mini #meadow like state. Have transplanted common #Lousewort and sown coastal and near coast #YellowRattle, also sowed #eyebright and #RedBartsia. Will let you know how I get on. Coastal rattle small, near coastal tall. Interesting to see if there is a height difference when they germinate. 1/2
@richardev
Thanks, yes I'm excited to see what germinated. I expect not all will flower 1st year.
#YellowRattle & #Sneezewort were two target plants I had to travel to the coast to get. The rest were relatively near. Apart from sowing 2 handfuls of rattle I transplanted 3 #Lousewort plants & sowed #RedBartsia as hemi parasites.
I use forest tracks mostly as come September all earmarked hedge seed source was flailed. Maybe your Tufted vetch will come in time they say sanding vetch seed may help
