DISCONTINUED

We are discontinuing this variety for the time being. These seeds are likely still viable, but it has been a year or so since we last germination tested them, so we've popped them on sale, as is, incase anyone wants to snap them up before they're gone.

MATTHIOLA INCANA

The most interesting coloured stock I've ever grown! Muted, dusty raspberry, very sold stems, slightly shorter than other stocks but still very usable in bouquets.

A 50/50 mix between doubles and singles. 

Being apart of the brassica family, it's best to try and time sowing after your white butterfly numbers subside in autumn but with enough time to make it to flowering before their population explodes back in spring - or be prepared to net them and/or treat with weekly/fortnightly sprays of BT (Bacillus thuringiensis - organic bacteria) to keep the munching caterpillars under control.
