Breadseed poppies are easy to grow and make a wonderful addition to any garden & will self seed when happy!

Annual, Height: 36-48”,  full sun, Days to maturity: 80-90 days, Plant spacing: 9”  Resent transplanting and do best when direct sown.

The blooms are not particularly long-lasting as cut flowers,  lasting just 2-3 days in the vase if you’re lucky. Harvest when flowers are half open, and sear the bottom end in boiling water for 7-10 seconds. Seedpods can be dried and used indefinitely or used fresh in bouquets.

Lupin Mix
Lupin Mix
A member of the pea family, Lupins are a wonderful old-fashioned flower, with spires of blue, yellow, pink, purple, white, peach and bicolours.. Although they are perennials, lupins are in the class of short-lived perennials. They put all their energy into those magnificent flower stalks and wear themselves out in the effort. Lupins live in the range of two to five years, but luckily they will self seed and the butterflies and bumblebees will love you.

Painted Daisy -Tricolour Chrysanthemum Rainbow Mix
Painted Daisy -Tricolour Chrysanthemum Rainbow Mix
a.k.a. Annual Chrysanthemum, Painted Daisy, 'Fancy Pants Daisy Mix' (Ismelia carinata syn. Chrysanthemum carinatum)  Annual Painted Daisy is simply a treasure!  Every flower lover deserves a big stand of Painted Daisies, their merry bulls-eye patterns and multitude of bright colours (purple, orange, scarlet, rose, salmon, yellow and white shades) delighting the senses with every new bloom. They are very easy to grow, and the best news is that once you sow your first batch of these annuals, they will obligingly re-seed for you, year after glorious year! These blooms are just so cheery -- about 3 inches wide, with concentric rings of colours in two or even three brilliant shades. No two blooms will be just alike on these plants, which reach anywhere from 18 inches to 3 feet tall, and range from about 15 to 18 inches wide. Heavy flowering annuals produce loads of showy, daisy-like flowers which are long-lasting cut. Expect the first blooms by midsummer, and watch them keep going (faster if cut or deadheaded!) right into the middle of fall in most climates. Cut back after bloom for repeat in late summer. What a season!
