I don't think so, Jacque , sorry - it should seed itself, but it's on the steep bit of the stream bank and whenever I try to get down the bank to weed or tidy, I slide down on my bottom! Very undignified! At the moment I am not even going to try, because the stream is flowing high and fast and I don't want to fall in - it has been known...LOL.

did grow Loosestrife from seed two years ago, it germinated very well. Where you got your wild meadow seeds might have them.
