Thompson & Morgan Foxglove Candy Mountain 40 Seed

£2.99

Foxglove - Candy Mountain

Foxglove Candy Mountain is totally unique as it is the first upward facing Foxglove from seed. This unusual characteristic enables you, and the bees, to peep inside the stunning rose pink blooms and view their delightful freckled throats, which appear all the way around the stems. These flower stems are so strong, sturdy and erect that in breeding trials Candy Mountain was given the nickname 'Viagra'! It is ideal for planting in drifts, creating a colourful display towards the middle or back of your perennial or cottage garden borders. Height: 90-140cm.

Sow January to May on the surface of a good, free-draining, damp, seed compost and place at a temperature of at 18-29C. Lightly cover the seed with vermiculite. Place in a propagator or seal container inside a polythene bag until after germination which usually takes 14-30 days. Do not exclude light, as this helps germination. Transplant seedlings when large enough to handle into trays or 7.5cm pots. Gradually acclimatise plants to cooler conditions for a few weeks before planting out after all risk of frost, 45-6cm apart.
