Mr Fothergills Candytuft Fairy Mixed 500 Seeds

Candytuft – Fairy Mixed

This is a timeless favourite producing lightly scented, sturdy clusters of pastel pink, lavender, carmine and white blooms. They are so easy and rewarding to grow, reaching the height of 20cm.

Sow outdoors, March-May or August-October, where they are to flower, 0.5cm (“) deep, directly into finely-prepared, well-drained soil, which has already been watered. Seedlings usually appear in 14-28 days. Thin seedlings to 20cm (8”) apart. Water well until plants are established. Sowings made in curves, rather then straight lines, often create a more pleasing effect. For a continuous display, make sowings at two to three-week intervals. Late summer and autumn sowings will flower the following year. Flowers: June-September.
