Yellow rattle seed (Rhinanthus minor)
Harvested from a beautiful meadow in the Burren by Burrenbeo Conservation Volunteers, these seeds of the valuable yellow rattle wildflowers are now available to buy in limited quantities – until stock lasts! Priority will be given to Trust members.
Yellow rattle/ Rhinanthus minor / gliográn is wonderful plant, a hemi-parasite which is also sometimes known as ‘the meadow maker’ for its famous ability to suppress the growth of grass and encourage a greater diversity of wildflowers to thrive.
