Description
1x packet of 10x Scilla hyacinthoides Seeds, collected from the form ‘Blue Arrow’.
Scilla hyacinthoides is a superb plant, and one of the larger Scilla species, easily capable of reaching 80 or 90cm in height. The pale blue / purple flower spikes have an almost electric glow to them and they are a stand out plant when in flower.
Fully hardy here in the UK, they do best in a warm and sunny position in good soil. Plants are easily raised from seeds, and can even naturalise under appropriated conditions. Sow the seeds in a good quality seed compost.

Agave montana Seeds
1 x Agave montana seed packet containing 10 seeds.
Agave montana is a Mexican species with stiff and spiny deep green leaves. Over the past few years, Agave montana has taken the horticultural world by storm as it is both easy to grow and can take cold and frosty temperatures with ease.
Sow the seeds on the surface of a well drained compost. When larger, plants can be planted outdoors in a very well drained gritty or gravelly soil in full sun. Although this species is very cold hardy, it is well recommended to place a rain cover over the plant during the winter months. Excessive moisture or snow freezing in the crown can sometimes cause problems.
Francoa sonchifolia seeds
1x packet of Francoa sonchifolia seeds. Seeds are very small and each packet will contain a minimum of 25 seeds.
Francoa sonchifolia is endemic to Chile. Making clumps of lovely evergreen leaves which colour up well in the Autumn, tall and long lasting flower spikes appear in summer with pale pink petals with darker splashes. For some reason, this is not grown anywhere near as much as it should be. Fully hardy in the UK and an excellent and easy choice for a splash of colour.
Scilla latifolia Seeds
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.
