Calendula Pot Marigold Nova Sarah Raven Seeds £3.05
We love pot marigolds in the garden and so do our pollinators! These seeds are incredibly easy to grow – just direct sow anywhere in the sun. You can also use them in brilliant-coloured arrangements and eat the flowers in a salad.
Yellow Rattle Sarah Raven Seeds £2.60
Parasitical on grasses, this is the plant to sow if you want to encourage wild flowers into the lawn or rough grass in your garden. By weakening the strong growing grass varieties, it makes room for wild flowers. It is the essential start to any successful wild flower meadow – large or small.
Crocosmia Lucifer (5 bulbs) £2.45
Lucifer is one of the most popular of the Crocosmia family due to its stunning scarlet red flowers. Growing to about 1 metre in height, Crocosmia Lucifer flowers all Summer long. Crocosmia like to be planted in well-drained soil in a sunny, open position. They grow particularly well in borders and rockeries. Crocosmia bulbs like to be well watered during the growing period. The corms are never completely dormant, so leave them in the ground, providing a good mulch in all but the mildest areas. Crocosmia make excellent cut flowers.
Cosmos Purity Sarah Raven Seeds £2.30
Cosmos Purity is a classic cut flower and supremely lovely garden plant, which no one should be without. If you’re only going for the half-hardy annual, it has to be this marvellous plant. One square metre gives you fifty buckets of cut flowers over several months. The bees and butterflies also love it.
Cosmos Dazzler Sarah Raven Seeds £2.30
Cosmos ‘Dazzler’ is a large, open, buttercup-like flower of carmine pink with delicate, feathery foliage, an absolute must have all-rounder with exceptional length of flowering and brilliant vase life. The bees and butterflies also love it.
Ammi Majus Sarah Raven Seeds £2.30
Ammi Majus is also known as ‘Bishop’s Flower’, the lacy, white blooms are like a more delicate form of cow parsley. This is the best white filler-foliage plant you can grow and looks spectacular arranged in a great cloud on its own. It forms larger, more prolific plants from an autumn sowing. Our all-important pollinator hoverflies also love it.
Lavender Hidcote Blue Strain Seeds £2.20
A hardy shrub, flowers the year after sowing. Scented leaves and flowers are a favourite of bees. Perfect low hedge or edging, flowering year after year.
Carnation Choice Double Mixed Seeds £2.05
A half-hardy annual, flowering the same year as sown. Large, double flowers in a fine colour range. Superb for cutting and garden display
Wildflower Poppy Seeds £2.05
A hardy annual, it can be sown where it is to flower. Easy to grow and attractive to beneficial insects. Lovely in borders, cottage gardens and wildlife areas
