Seeds to Sow in September

Seeds to Sow in September

Get ahead of the game! September is arguably the best month for sowing many of the most beloved cottage garden flowers. As the soil is still warm from summer but moisture levels are increasing, it provides the perfect conditions for seeds to germinate and establish strong roots before winter arrives.

Why Sow in September? Sowing Hardy Annuals and Biennials now is the gardener's secret weapon for earlier, bigger, and more abundant flowers next year compared to spring sowings.

What to Sow Directly Outdoors in September: This collection features ideal candidates for autumn sowing directly into prepared soil. Think drifts of Cornflowers, vibrant Calendula (Pot Marigold), elegant Nigella (Love-in-a-Mist), tall Larkspur, and essential fillers like Ammi majus and Orlaya grandiflora.

What to Sow Under Cover: It's also the perfect time to sow Biennials like Foxgloves or Sweet William in seed trays, along with Sweet Peas in deep pots, keeping them in a cold frame or unheated greenhouse over winter.

Browse our September sowing collection and lay the groundwork for your most beautiful spring and summer garden yet!
