Grd :
The
Grandmother's
Cut Flower
Garden Mix
is a
charming,
old-fashioned
blend of
flowers your
grandmother
might have
grown.
Twenty-three
varieties of
annuals,
biennials
and
perennials
will provide
flowers for
cutting from
spring
through
first frost.
They have a
wonderful
range of
colors,
shapes and
textures to
enliven a
whole
season's
worth of
bouquets.
Even if your
grandmother
didn't have
a green
thumb, this
mix will
evoke images
of a
simpler,
less hurried
time in
which she
lived. An
old-fashioned
cutting
garden was
often no
more than a
corner of
the garden
where a few
flower seeds
were tossed.
This cut
flower mix
has 23
different
flowers to
enliven any
bouquet.
In cool
climates
plant in the
spring, 1 to
2 weeks
before the
last average
frost date.
In mild
climates,
sow seed
during
cooler
months,
generally
October
through
March. Soil
must be kept
moist while
the seeds
are
germinating
and
beginning to
grow. Be
sure to keep
the weeds
pulled so
they do not
compete with
the flowers
for water
and sun.This
mix covers
approximately
100 square
feet.
