MATTHIOLA INCANA
A new gem discovery from our latest trials! Pale dusty pink, a touch lighter than Malmaison Pink, and a little shorter & sturdier for better bouquet sized stems.
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.
