About this box

There is a unique joy in walking out to your garden with a pair of snippers and coming back with an armful of fresh flowers. This box makes that dream a reality, even if you have never grown a seed in your life.

Eight of the easiest, most productive cut flowers — all "cut-and-come-again" varieties that produce more flowers the more you pick them, chosen like a florist's mix. Cosmos 'Daydream' and Zinnia 'Queeny' are the focal flowers, Clary Sage 'Oxford Blue' gives upright spires and Ammi majus airy white lace to fill out a jug. Cornflower 'Black Ball' and Calendula 'Pink Surprise' add contrast, and Statice dries on the stem to keep its colour all winter. Scabiosa 'Beaujolais Bonnets' flowers in its first summer and comes back year after year — a lovely surprise for a first-time grower. Everything needed to keep vases full from July to the first frosts.

The Golden Rules

Sow Cosmos, Zinnias, Statice and Scabiosa indoors on a warm windowsill in March–April. Sow Cornflower, Calendula, Clary Sage and Ammi directly onto the soil outdoors in April–May — no pots or propagators needed.

Keep picking. These plants want to set seed — regular harvesting triggers more bud production. A consistent cut every few days guarantees a longer, more generous season. Full instructions are printed on every packet.

Arrives in signature eco-friendly packaging — a thoughtful gift for anyone who wants to fill their home with flowers.

Loveliest Seed Buying Experience

Such a lovely company to buy from, from start to finish! Great website with a gorgeous selection of seeds and seed collections. On delivery, my order was beautifully packaged with a pretty dried flower added to my box. The seed packets are so gorgeous and each one has very clear instructions and tips. So glad I’ve discovered this company and will definitely be buying from again!

Statice seeds

Completely a beginner but they have germinated after a couple of days and seedlings seem to be coming along nicely, very healthy and happy little plants … seeds came in addition to sow a long package and all beautifully presented … will be a repeat customer

Clary Sage Oxford Blue Seeds

Beautifully packaged & illustrated. Will be planted next year and I’m confident they will germinate easily as Bishy Barnabee’s Cottage Garden Seeds are reliable.
