Varieties include: Ammi majus (Queen Anne’s Lace), Anethum graveolens (Dill), Carum carvi (Caraway), Coriandrum sativum (Coriander), Cosmos bipinnatus (Cosmos), Fagopyrum esculentum (Buckwheat), Gypsophila elegans (Gypsophila), Lobularia maritima (Alyssum), Tagetes patula (French Marigold), Trifolium pratense (Red Clover).
How To Grow
You can sow our Beneficial Insect Mix almost year-round, avoiding the hottest and coldest months. The seeds can be scattered thinly or sown in the flowering position. Cover lightly with a seed-raising mix, firm down, and keep moist. Thin out as necessary. Choose a well-drained soil and a sunny position. Flowers will appear after 8-14 weeks and continue over many months.
