Wildflower seed sowing

I have spent a good part of the day preparing for a local wildflower seed sowing event, tomorrow. The idea is for people to  sow a selection of seeds ( we have nine choices) in containers which they will take home and grow on, and then plant out in their gardens or in bigger containers. All the plants selected are attractive to pollinating insects and will grow in our chalky soil. 
The seeds include Greater Knapweed, Corn Marigold, Wild Marjoram, Creeping Thyme, Foxglove, Small Scabious and Borage . 
If we are all very successful with our growing, and end up with excess plants(!) there will be another event in May  where people can swap plants.
