Thompson & Morgan Hesperis Matronalis Kew Pollination Collection Seed Packet - Blue Flowers, Attracts Pollinators, Cottage Garden Biennial

Thompson & Morgan

Hesperis matronalis is a traditional cottage garden biennial, also known as Sweet Rocket. At its best when grown en masse in sunny herbaceous borders where its mauve pink flowers and sweet fragrance will make it irresistible to gardeners and pollinators alike! Once established, Sweet Rocket will self-seed freely to create perfumed drifts with a naturally informal feel, which lends itself beautifully to cottage gardens and wildlife areas. Culinary note: some parts of these flowers are edible.The Kew Pollinators range of seeds from Thompson and Morgan has been specially created alongside the experts at Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew to attract and support a wide range of pollinators, including bees, butterflies and beetles, as well as a number of other important pollinating insects. Helping these pollinators to thrive is hugely important for our eco-system as a whole and these seeds, in their striking packaging inspired by artwork from the Kew archives, will help to create the environment which they need to thrive, with varieties chosen to help a wide range of pollinating insects, including some night flowering plants to help moths which also play an important part in our gardens.Product specifications:Position: Full Sun, Sun or Semi ShadeHeight: Up to 90cm when fully establishedSpread: Up to 45cm when fully establishedSupplied as 1x Hesperis matronalis Kew Pollination Collection seed packet (approx. 500 seeds)Delivered with growing and care instructionsHarvest Flowering period – May to JulyImages shown are for guidance only of the expected results from plants upon maturity.
