Scilla latifolia Seeds

£7.00

1x seed packed containing 10x seeds of Scilla latifolia.

A stunningly beautiful species, Scilla latifolia stopped me in my tracks when I first encountered it whilst walking in the mountains of La Gomera. I have been searching for seeds ever since, and am therefore very pleased to have found a source of cultivated seeds and to offer them here for the first time.

Found in the Canary Islands and Morocco, this makes a stout rosette of lush leaves topped with a large flower spike of intense purple / blue flowers. With a long flowering season, the flowers are a real show-stopper.

Cultivation is easy, but frost free conditions are needed. Sow the seeds in regular seed compost and keep at around 20 degrees.

Potentially a spreader in the garden, this is not a recommended plant for a neat and formal border, but makes a wonderful addition to a woodland or wild garden. Please note that seeds germinate easily, but do not show a leaf for until their second year.

Eucomis comosa Seeds

£1.50
1x seed packet containing 10x Eucomis comosa Seeds Eucomis is a genus of bulbous plants from South Africa. Their common name 'Pineapple Lily' refers to the tuft of leaves held on top of the flower spike, giving the appearance of a pineapple top. Eucomis comosa is one of the easiest species. It is also one of the larger Eucomis and can make quite a statement in a herbaceous border. Glossy strap-shaped leaves emerge in late spring, followed by their remarkable flower. These seeds are our own Eucomis comosa hybrids - parent plants have a mixture of green or deep maroon foliage, with many shades of flower colour. Some of the resultng seedlings will no doubt be quite unusual.

Rosa glauca Seeds

£3.00
1x seed packet containing 10x Rosa glauca seeds. Rosa glauca is one of my personal favourite rose species. It makes superb glaucus blue-green leaves and is an especially beautiful plant even when not in flower. Arching stems with relatively few thorns produce bright pink flowers - each of these is relatively small at around 4cm, but there are plenty of them, and they have a lovely delicate appearance. Bright red hops are made in early Autumn. Totally hardy and very easy. Height is up to around 7 feet although it can be kept smaller. Rosa glauca is a superb shrub rose. Rosa glauca seeds should be sown with a cold stratification - either plant in the autumn / winter, or keep in the fridge for around 4 weeks after sowing.

Zantedeschia jucunda Seeds

£4.75
1x seed packet containing 10 seeds of Zantedeschia jucunda. Zantedeschia jucunda, commonly known as the 'Yellow Arum Lily', is a superb species of Arum Lily from the Sekhukuneland mountains in the North East of South Africa. The true species is not common - this plant was originally introduced into cultivation by the late Rod and Rachel Saunders of Silverhill Seeds of South Africa. Making bright yellow urn-shaped flowers, this is an especially beautiful Arum Lily. Fully hardy in an unheated greenhouse, we have not tested it outside unprotected yet, however, it should be hardy in a normal UK winter provided that the soil is not too wet for the colder months. Zantedeschia jucunda seeds germinate readily - soak the seeds for 24 hours and sow into a regular seed potting mix. Gentle bottom heat aids germination.
