Mr Fothergill's Verbascum Mixed Seeds (500 Pack)
Classic plant for mixed border.
Stately flowers in white to pink and dusky carmine. A classic plant for mixed borders.
Sow indoors, January-April, to flower the same year, 0.5cm (¼") deep, in trays of compost. A temperature of 15-20°C (60-68°F) is ideal. Keep moist. Seedlings usually appear in 14-28 days. Transplant them, 5cm (2") apart, to other trays, when large enough to handle. Gradually accustom young plants to outside conditions, before planting out into well-drained soil, May-October, 40cm (16") apart, when frosts are over. Or, sow outdoors, April-July, to flower the following year, in a seed bed, 0.5cm (¼") deep, into finely-prepared, well-drained soil, which has already been watered. Thin seedlings to 5cm (2") apart, before planting out to flowering position in autumn, spacing 40cm (16") apart. Flowers: June to August.
