ACONITUM SPECIES MIXED

Description

We are offering a selection of a large number of different aconitums varying in colour from white and yellows up to pale lavender and deepest blue. All of them are hardy herbaceous plants, and habits vary from compact to bushy, with heights also covering a good variable range. Grow some and see if you can identify them, as we have collected too little seed to offer them individually.

Sowing Advice

For best results, sow immediately onto a good soil-based compost. Cover the seeds with fine grit or compost to approximately their own depth. They can be sown at any time, and germination can sometimes be quicker if kept at 15 to 20 degrees C. We sow most seeds in an unheated greenhouse and wait for natural germination, as many seeds have built-in dormancy mechanisms, often waiting for natural spring germination, hence giving them a full season of growth.
