Plant Overview

Probably one of the most heavily scented flowers you'll come across. A few cut stems will fill a room with their clove-like fragrance.

Plant in a bed, pot or container near a path or patio to enjoy the scent. Lovely white flowers from spring to mid-summer.

Silver-green foliage on woody stems.

This cultivated form of the Garden Stock lasts longer than the usual annual varieties and should give you pleasure for 2-3 years. Easy to grow from saved seed.

Height x Spread: 45cm x 45cm

Common name(s): Garden Stock

All our plants are supplied in 9cm pots unless otherwise specified. Plants in this size pot establish quickly in the garden and often outpace plants in bigger pots planted at the same time. Our potted plants can be planted immediately, unless otherwise noted, or you can leave them in their pots until you are ready to plant.

The majority of our plants are grown outdoors. This means that they follow their natural growth patterns and are ready to plant at any time of the year. If you order the plants in winter, they are likely to be dormant and died back to ground level, ready to shoot again in spring - just like the herbaceous perennials in your own garden. Very occasionally, in winter, we may indicate on the packing slip that a plant needs to be hardened off before planting out. This will be because it has just come out of a polytunnel. If you have any questions about our plants or growing methods, please feel free to drop us an email.

We grow most of what we sell ourselves, in our nursery in the Buckinghamshire countryside. Our prices include VAT at 20%.
