Overview

A variable native perennial, which bears scented yellow cups that gather in a cluster at the tops of the upright stems in mid- to late spring. Once a common sight in the wild, they are now becoming rarer, but they make great additions to wildflower meadows, where their flowers will help attract beneficial pollinators (including bees).

Care guide

Sow on the surface of good seed compost and gently firm them in before watering. Place in a cold frame and transplant individually into small pots when large enough to handle. Keep moist but not wet and grow on in a cool environment before hardening off and planting out in the garden. Most seeds should germinate within 6 weeks, but as they need cold and wet conditions prior to germination, some may lie dormant for up to 2 years before they start to sprout. Therefore, once the first seedlings have been thinned out and grown on, tuck the seed tray in a shady corner and see what happens. Sow: May - June or August - October Flowering: May - June Approximate quantity: 50 seeds
