Description

White Summer Flower Mix brings together a range of annual flowers in pure white and soft cream shades to create a calm, elegant display from summer into early autumn. Plants form airy clumps around 80โ€“90 cm tall, perfect for the middle of a border or for relaxed cottageโ€‘style plantings with a cool, monochrome look.โ€‹
The mix includes annuals of different shapes and bloom times so the planting evolves through the season, and many of the varieties have long stems that are perfect for cutting. It is an easy way to fill a bed or strip with coordinated, allโ€‘white flowers for both garden and vase.โ€‹

Growing information

๐ŸŒฑย Sowing

  • Sow direct outdoors in spring on a fine, weedโ€‘free seedbed, broadcasting thinly and raking lightly to cover the seed.โ€‹

โ˜€๏ธย Light

  • Prefers full sun but will still flower well in light partial shade.โ€‹

๐Ÿ’งย Watering

  • Water regularly after sowing and during establishment, then in dry spells to keep plants growing steadily.

  • Soil should be freeโ€‘draining rather than waterlogged.โ€‹

๐ŸŒก๏ธย Germination

  • Germinates in typical spring temperatures, with seedlings appearing over 1โ€“3 weeks depending on species and weather.โ€‹

๐Ÿ“ย Spacing & size

  • After germination, thin where crowded, aiming for roughly 20โ€“30 cm between plants or clumps so they can branch and flower freely.โ€‹

  • Mature plants reach about 80โ€“90 cm with a soft, slightly informal habit.โ€‹
