Yellow Rattle (Rhinanthus minor) is a charming annual wildflower commonly used in meadow and natural landscape plantings. It produces bright yellow, snapdragon-like blooms that add a soft, traditional look to open spaces. The plant is well known for its distinctive seed pods, which create a gentle rattling sound when dry.

This species thrives when grown among grasses and is often included in meadow mixes to support balanced plant growth. Yellow Rattle prefers open, sunny locations and adapts well to a range of soil types, especially low-fertility ground where wildflowers naturally flourish.

Ideal for meadows, wildlife gardens, and naturalised areas, Yellow Rattle helps create a diverse and visually appealing landscape with minimal maintenance once established.
