Our Seed

There are at least 6 subspecies of Rhinanthus minor in the UK. I would think there are many more, to be honest; Rattle varies enormously in its appearance and there are even significant variations in time of flowering. We're currently sourcing our seed from several different harvesters, in Northumberland, the south of England, Midlands, and this seed from Brycheiniog, near Sennybridge in the Brecon Beacons. It's harvested by the fifth generation of a family farming in the Bannau. This seed is from the 2025 harvest and commands a premium because of its rarity.

We have our Yellow Rattle seed independently tested. The result typically indicate viability over 90%.
