Matthiola longipetala Annual Partial Shade The flowers are small but their fragrance, released in the evening, is unbeatable. Fast / easy growing Ideal for filling gaps in the border A lovely blend of pastel shades, fabulously fragrant. So easy to grow, flowers rapidly from seed. Approx. 1000 seeds Sow outdoors, March-June, where they are to flower, 0.5cm (\”) deep, directly into finely-prepared, well-drained soil, which has already been watered. Seedlings usually appear in 14-21 days. Thin them to 15cm (6\”) apart and water well until plants are established. For a continuous display, make sowings at two to three-week intervals. Sowings made in curves, rather than straight lines, often create a more pleasing effect. Flowers: June to October. Sow near the house, or mixed in pots on the patio, so the fragrance can be enjoyed on warm, summer evenings.
