If they are seeds of wild flowers naturally found in Britain, go outdoors
now and throw the seeds where you want them. They'll know what to do.

Steve,
these are wildflowers to go into grass so most species cannot just be
scattered into the grass since, even if they germinated, they would be
smothered by the grass.

Even the best empty areas can fail too - a load of seeds I'd put on
wasteland came up and did really well until it started raining solidly
- they mostly drowned.
The remaining ones which flowered were picked by a dog walker who took
them home for his wife
