Matthiola Stock 'Ten Week' Light Blue seeds will give your garden a hint of vintage charm and a delightful scent. A favourite for borders, cottage gardens, and cutting gardens alike, this graceful, tall-growing annual yields exquisitely fragrant flower spikes in a gentle, pastel blue hue. Large, thick blooms with a delicious clove-like aroma are produced by this Matthiola incana cultivar, which is well-known for its short blooming cycle--flowering only 10 weeks after sowing. These resilient plants grow well in full light and well-drained soil, making them perfect for cool-season planting. The flowers survive a long time in a vase or in the garden, making them ideal for bouquets and floral arrangements. 

Growing instructions:

Sow Matthiola Stock 'Ten Week' Light Blue immediately outdoors as soon as the soil is suitable in the early spring, or start seeds indoors 6–8 weeks prior to the last anticipated frost. Light helps seeds germinate, so spread them thinly on the top of good, well-draining soil and gently push them down. Make sure the soil is constantly damp but not soggy. Usually, germination takes place at temperatures between 15 and 18°C  in 7 to 14 days. This cool-season annual may not do well in extreme heat and prefers milder conditions. To prevent illness, water frequently and steer clear of overhead watering. Matthiola Stock 'Ten Week' Light Blue flower during the summer months.
