Stocks

🌸 Fragrant & Classic

Stocks are beloved for their stunning, clove-like scent and dense, showy spikes of velvety flowers. Perfect for borders or containers near patios and walkways, they offer a vintage, cottage-garden charm that is as delightful to the senses as it is to the eye.

  • Growing: Thrive in full sun and cool, moist, well-drained soil. They perform best during the cooler temperatures of early summer or autumn and may struggle in the peak heat of mid-summer.

  • Sowing (Important Care): Starting Stocks requires a consistent approach. Lightly cover the seeds with a fine layer of vermiculite or soil, ensuring good contact with the medium. It is essential not to let the seeds dry out—maintain steady moisture during the germination phase. Furthermore, keep the environment cool and stable (ideally 15–18°C), as high temperatures can negatively impact germination success.

  • Care: Keep the soil evenly moist and provide regular feeding. If growing for cut flowers, planting in successive batches can help extend your harvest season.

  • Blooming: Offers a beautiful, fragrant display primarily during the cooler months of late spring and early summer.
