Description
Mr Fothergill’s Clary Blue Monday Seeds, Strikingly colourful, unusually large bracts. If you are creating a cottage garden or informal border, clary is a ‘must’. Can be used as a fresh or dried cut flower.
Sow outdoors where they are to flower, 0.5cm deep, directly into finely prepared soil which has already been watered. Seedlings usually appear in 14-28 days. Thin seedlings to 30cm apart. Water well until plants are established. Or sow indoors in trays of compost. Water well and place in a greenhouse or cold frame. Keep moist. Transplant seedlings 5cm apart to other trays when large enough to handle. (Always hold seedlings by a leaf, never by the stem.) Gradually accustom young plants to outside conditions (avoid frosts), before planting out 30cm apart, when frosts are over.
• A hardy annual, it can be sown where it is to flower
• Easy to grow, for unusual and lasting displays
• Great fresh or dried cut flowers and loved by pollinators
