Suttons Seeds Suttons Seed Cleome Fireworks Mix

A stunning explosion of colour for your garden or vase. Cleome makes a perfect summer border plant as well as a lovely textural cut flower. A great plant to keep unwanted visitors of your garden too as the stems have sharp spikes running up the stems- must be handled with care when cutting. Flowers July-September. Height 90-100cm. Half hardy annual.

Sow in trays of good quality, moist seed compost, 3mm deep, in a propagator on a windowsill or in a greenhouse at approximately 18-21’C. Transfer seedlings when large enough to handle into further trays spacing them 5cm apart and grow on. Plant outside in late May-June, after acclimatising to outside conditions, about 40cm apart. Prefers good Loamy soil in an open sunny position. Note that there are spikes on the stems.
