Make this the year you grow your own flowers
This carefully planned selection of cut flower seedlings will produce 3-4 vases of flowers a week, from June until October. This is brilliant value and an easy and hugely rewarding thing to grow.
You will need at least 3.5m x 4m of space in the garden in sun. Full instructions and planting plan included.
Please note: These seedlings can be affected by the spring weather conditions and will be sent out at the optimum time for planting straight out in the garden.
