Flowers to sow in March
With the arrival of Spring we can finally start to sow flower seeds to bring some colour into our gardens.
Hardy Annuals
Hardy annuals such as borages, cornflowers and ladybird poppies can be sown outdoors. These can be grown in poor soil so there's no need to enrich it but do weed and rake the area first
Sweet Peas
Sweet peas can be sown under cover. They like long root runs so sow into deep pots or modules
Wildflowers
Wildflower mixes can be sown outside. Like hardy annuals weed and rake the area first
Half Hardy Annuals
Half hardy annuals such as antirrhinums, zinnias, cosmos & cleomes can be sown. These are not frost hardy so must be sown under cover
Dahlias
Dahlias can be sown in greenhouses. These perennials can also have their tubers dug up in Autumn to store over Winter
