Stock - StoX Silver
MATTHIOLA INCANA
I'm not sure what I was expecting from our trials of the new StoX series, but they totally blew me over with how good they were! For a starters they survived our less than ideal trial conditions of rather late planting, and next to no irrigation/watering in their tunnel bed, and somehow came out the other side flourishing!
The palest of pale pink coloured stock I've ever seen! Same shade of dusty pink as Milla Light Pink, but much lighter.
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.
