Thompson & Morgan is delighted to work alongside the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew to offer special seed collections to home gardeners. This Kew Pollinators Collection has been specially selected by The Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew.

Scatter these beautifully fragrant annuals throughout borders close to the patio, where you can fully appreciate them on a warm summer’s night. Their rich perfume will fill the air, attracting pollinating insects to the garden. Night Scented Stock is an easy annual to grow, offering plenty of old fashioned charm, and thriving in any sunny spot. A superb filler plant for gaps at the front of borders, particularly in cottage garden schemes and wildlife areas. Height: 45cm (18"). Spread: 25cm (10").

Culinary note: Flowers are usually added raw to salads or as a garnish to desserts, they can also be candied. Their flavour is perfumed. For more details about edible flowers click here.

Direct sow Stocks seeds outdoors where they are to grow from March to June. Choose a position in full sun on any well drained soil which has been raked to a fine tilth. Sow seeds thinly, at a depth of 6mm (¼in) in drills spaced 30cm (12”) apart and cover the seed with its own depth of soil to exclude light. Water the ground regularly, especially during dry periods. Germination usually takes 7 - 14 days. When Stock seedlings are large enough to handle, thin them out to 20cm (10”) apart.

Water regularly until plants are fully established. Deadhead faded stock flowers to encourage more blooms to be produced.
