PLANTAGO SEEDS

The Plantago genus, commonly known as Plantain, is a hardy and adaptable member of the Plantaginaceae family. These herbaceous perennials and annuals are celebrated for their rosettes of broad, ribbed leaves and slender spikes of tiny, inconspicuous flowers that bloom from spring through summer. Plantago is valued for its resilience and ability to thrive in a variety of environments, from lawns to wildflower meadows.

Native to temperate regions worldwide, Plantago thrives in well-drained soils and sunny to partially shaded locations. These plants are particularly known for their ecological value, providing food for pollinators and larval host plants for butterflies. Popular species such as Plantago major, or Broadleaf Plantain, and Plantago lanceolata, or Ribwort Plantain, are also valued for their traditional medicinal uses.

The Plantago genus combines hardiness, ecological benefits, and practical uses, making it an excellent choice for naturalistic gardens, ecological landscapes, or areas where wildlife-friendly planting is prioritised.
