Mr Fothergills – Flower – Sweet Pea – Suffolk Punch – 20 Seeds

Raising funds in aid of endangered Suffolk Punch horses. Named in honour of Miggie Wyllie, the founder of the Suffolk Heritage Garden. Sow indoors for surest results, 1.5cm (1/2″) deep, 5 seeds per 12cm (5″) pot of compost. Water well and place in a cold frame, greenhouse or cool windowsill. A temperature of 15 (60oF) is ideal. Seedlings ususally appear in 12-21 days. Keep moist. Pinch out the growing tip when two paris of leaves have formed to encourage bushy growth. Gradually accustom plants to outside conditions (avoid frosts), before planting out 30 cm (1′) apart. Support with tall canes or netting. Seedlings are best protected against bird damage with a few short twigs. Autumn sowings should be over wintered in cool but frost free conditions.
