Description
1x seed packet containing 10x Arum apulum seeds.
Arum apulum is a rarely grown Arum species from a localised area of Italy. It has proven to be hardy here in Devon, either in pots or in the ground. A good level of sun seems to benefit growth, as does protection from strong winds which can damage the leaves.
Arum apulum makes typical plain green Arum foliage, and a relatively large spathe. This has a pale pink / reddish colour to the inside, along with a maroon spadix.
Easily grown. Sow Arum apulum seeds in a good quality seed compost. No heat is required for germination, although as with many Arum seeds, germination can take anywhere from 4 weeks or so to a few months.

Arisaema fargesii Seeds
1x seed packed containing 10x Arisaema fargesii seeds.
Arisaema fargesii is an unfussy and vigorous species. The flattish pinky brown tubers multiply easily through small offsets.
The spathe is strongly hooded and striped brown and white, with the spadix hidden deep inside. Eventually, Arisaema fargesii can reach large proportions. The leaf will be 'tear shaped' (hastate) in young plants. As the tuber increases in size, this leaf becomes trifoliate.
Rosa glauca Seeds
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.
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.
