About this box
Our masterpiece collection. Twenty-four of the most beloved, timeless and reliable flower varieties — enough to fill a large border, create a dedicated cutting patch, or scatter joy across every pot and corner of the garden. A complete tapestry of colour, scent and structure that blooms from early spring right through to the first frosts.
Due to seasonal availability, we occasionally swap a variety for another equally beautiful cottage classic.
Inside are all twelve old-fashioned varieties from our 12-packet box — larkspur, clarkia, candytuft, night-scented stock, sweet peas, nasturtium, hollyhock, Canterbury Bells, Sweet William, wallflowers, aquilegia and malva — plus twelve more classics. Cornflower 'Blue Ball', white Nigella 'Miss Jekyll', snapdragons and Cosmos 'Seashells' for cutting; Sweet Pea 'Winston Churchill' and the morning glory 'Heavenly Blue' to climb; Foxglove 'Alba', Honesty and Forget-me-nots for a second-year spring display; and Aquilegia 'Nora Barlow', Gaura 'The Bride' and Achillea 'Ballerina' as perennials that return every year.
A Year of Gardening — Sowing Guide
This box keeps you gardening across every season. In spring (March–May), sow the hardy annuals — Cornflower, Nigella, Larkspur, Clarkia, Candytuft and Stocks — direct, and start Cosmos, Snapdragons, Nasturtium and Morning Glory on a windowsill. In summer (May–July), sow the biennials — Hollyhocks, Foxgloves, Canterbury Bells, Sweet Williams, Wallflowers, Honesty and Forget-me-nots — to flower the following year. In autumn (September–October), sow Sweet Peas and Aquilegia for an early head-start on next year. Full instructions are printed on every packet.
Our most substantial gift box. Whether for a wedding, retirement or housewarming, it provides years of joy and a garden full of memories.
