What Flower seeds will be included?
Well... I would spoil things if I did tell you- however I can give you a sneak peek because Father Christmas says you're on the "nice list"! They're all beautiful flowers to grow in your garden in pink, blue and white colour tones so that it all matches perfectly. Think Cosmos, Nigella and some new varieties that you might not have heard of! The one thing I can guarantee is that you will have a garden brimming with gorgeous flowers! There are way over 1k seeds in the advent calendar. A mix of firm favourites & unique and different varieties. NB: All of the flower seeds will not have any duplications with the Monthly Gardening Subscription, so you can have both without worrying about having any of the same seeds.
The flower seeds are a mix of annuals, biennials & perennials in a mix of pretty shades. They have been chosen to create gorgeous garden borders but a lot of them can be used for a cutting garden too. The vast majority of varieties will flower this summer and there are a few varieties which you sow this Spring for flowers the following year (don't worry, all the growing instructions are included). You can sow the seeds from January onwards and through Spring for a gorgeous summer display. I will be sharing how and when to sow each of the 24 varieties with blog posts, social media updates and videos.
What do I need to grow all these flowers?
Total beginners very welcome! You'll need compost, pots or trays to sow the seeds into, plant labels and lots of enthusiasm!
Some seeds can be sown earlier in the season 'under cover', so you would benefit from a mini greenhouse, full greenhouse or plenty of windowsill space- but everything can be direct sown later in the season where required- so don't panic if you don't have a greenhouse! I will be sharing tips and full 'How To' videos on TRPG app, so we can grow everything together step by step.
What's the difference between the Flower Seed Advent Calendar and the monthly subscription?
The monthly gardening subscription has high quality flower seeds, bulb collections or plants to sow or plant the month you receive your box. It also includes information on which jobs to do in your garden that month. All of the flower seeds that I have chosen in the advent calendar will not be in the monthly subscription from January onwards so you could sign up for the monthly subscription and purchase an advent calendar and would have no duplication.
