About this box

Nothing is quite as romantic as a border overflowing with colour, scent and buzzing bees. Twelve full-sized packets of old-fashioned cottage garden flowers — tall spires, frothy fillers, scented edging and tumbling climbers, the plants that have been grown in British gardens for generations.

Larkspur, Clarkia and Candytuft give quick summer colour, with Night-Scented Stock and Sweet Pea 'Show Bench Mix' filling the evening with perfume and the apricot Nasturtium 'Alaska' spilling over the edges. For the following year there are towering Hollyhock 'Appleblossom', Canterbury Bells, Sweet William and the scented Wallflower 'Ruby Gem', while two perennials — Aquilegia 'Miss M I Huish' and Malva 'Snow White' — come back year after year.

Sowing Guide

This collection delivers colour across multiple seasons. Sow the hardy annuals — Larkspur, Clarkia, Candytuft, Night-Scented Stock and Nasturtium — direct outdoors in spring for flowers this summer; sweet peas can be sown in autumn or early spring. Sow the biennials — Hollyhock, Canterbury Bells, Sweet William and Wallflower — from May to July for flowers the following year. Aquilegia and Malva can be sown in spring or autumn. Full instructions are printed on every packet.

Arrives in signature eco-friendly packaging — a ready-to-give gift for anyone who dreams of a garden filled with traditional charm.

Lovely seeds and fabulous website

I ordered a selection of seeds that I can’t wait to start. The website is lovely and the packaging of the seeds very pretty and informative. I did have a query with my order but it was sorted straightaway so excellent customer service. I came across the website after seeing it mentioned by a lady I follow on instagram

Canterbury bells

I didn’t realise how beautiful these flowers are! I grew them for the first time this year. I’ve started the next batch off for next year’s flowers. Germination excellent and I’m sure the flowers will be equally good. Already looking forward to seeing them!

Five stars for processing the order.

Very efficient and prompt processing of the order and delivery. As I am about to sow the seeds I can’t comment on the germination rate or quality of the flowers yet, but if they match what I’ve seen of the company so far I’ll be delighted.
