    Balloon Flower 'Mixed' Seeds (Platycodon)

    Add a touch of magic and fun to your borders with Balloon Flowers! This delightful hardy perennial (Platycodon grandiflorus) gets its name from its fascinating flower buds, which swell up like plump little balloons before bursting open into beautiful, upward-facing, star-shaped flowers. This mixed collection offers blooms in lovely shades of blue, pink, and white.

    A delightful and reliable choice for our Perennial Flower Seeds collection! Fun for all ages.

    Sow Seeds

    Sow seeds between January and April indoors using well-drained seed compost. Press the seeds lightly onto the surface without covering them. They’ll sprout in 7-14 days when kept at 15-20°C.

    Plant Out

    Once the seedlings are big enough to handle, carefully transplant them into 7.5cm pots and let them grow until they’re nice and strong. Slowly introduce them to outdoor conditions before planting them out, spacing each plant about 20cm apart.
