Wildflowers UK, bringing the British Countryside to you.

Wild Liquorice -astragalus glycphyllos – is well suited to chalk and limestone soils and habitats include shrub and woodland. In gardens it can be grown in a summer flowering meadow or at the edge of a path or flower border. Wild Liquorice is a low, sprawling plant with soft yellow flowers that appear from June to September. It looks best growing with other chalk and limestone plants that flower in early to mid summer such as Oxeye daisies, Greater Knapweed, Kidney vetch, Meadow Cranesbills and Small Scabious.

How to grow Wild Liquorice Seeds
Wild Liquorice seeds are best sown in autumn, either outside, where they are to flower, or in seed trays and covered lightly with compost. Trays should be left outside over winter and either covered with a sheet of glass or left in a cold frame. The seedlings can be pricked out and grown on, for planting out later in the year.
