Perennial & Biennial Seeds


Biennials live for 2 years, whereas perennials live for longer. As a general rule, biennial and perennial seeds should be sown in spring, but some can be sown in autumn as well. Many varieties will self-seed after flowering, giving you even more plants!

Commelina Dianthifolia

Commelina dianthifolia

Bird-bill Day Flower, Widow's Tears

  Customer Rating

A very rare plant indeed. This is one of the few plants with such intense blue flowers and that will also perform well in the garden. Flowering in its first year with 2.5cm (1in) gentian blue flowers, it then produces tubers and springs back to life the following year with an unceasing display of blooms. Wonderful in containers, rock gardens and the border (regardless of soil conditions). Hardy down to -8/-10C. Flowers summer. Height 15-30cm (6-12in.)

Geranium Wallichianum Buxtons Blue

Geranium wallichianum 'Buxton's Blue'

Geranium wallichianum 'Buxton's Variety', Hardy Geranium, Cranesbill

 This is definitely the star of the perennial geranium family producing flowers virtually non-stop from mid summer to early autumn. The flowers themselves are a delight, a gorgeous clear opal, or Nemophila blue with large white centres, against which the dark stamens and dark veining of the petals contrast beautifully. The plant forms an attractive clump with attractive wedge shaped, silky, deeply toothed leaves, making this a very garden worthy plant even when not in flower. It also comes quite true from seed. Requirements: One of the easiest perennials to cultivate, happy in sun or light shade and any free draining garden soil. More info

Dianthus Caryophyllus Trailing Carnations Mixed

Dianthus caryophyllus 'Trailing Carnations Mixed'

Wild Carnation
Travelling in the Alpine regions of Europe one is struck by the magnificent and visual impact of their window boxes, hanging baskets, pots, tubs etc. And then we realised that they make liberal use of pendulous carnations adding an extra slant in perspective and design. The colour range is mainly pink and red shades.
