HIERACIUM SEEDS

The Hieracium genus, commonly known as Hawkweed, is a hardy and adaptable member of the Asteraceae family. These herbaceous perennials are celebrated for their daisy-like flowers in shades of yellow, orange, or red, which bloom in summer and provide a splash of colour to meadows, borders, and wildflower gardens. Hieracium is especially valued for its ability to thrive in challenging conditions.

Native to Europe, Asia, and North America, Hieracium thrives in well-drained soils and sunny locations. These drought-tolerant plants are perfect for low-maintenance landscapes and naturalised settings. Species such as Hieracium aurantiacum, or Orange Hawkweed, are particularly admired for their vivid blooms and suitability for dry, rocky soils.

The Hieracium genus combines resilience, ecological value, and low-maintenance care, making it an excellent choice for gardeners seeking plants that support pollinators and bring natural charm to their landscapes.
