Hesperis matronalis Alba - Seeds
£1.95
A statuesque biennial, beloved by bees and butterflies alike. It’s tall airy stems are topped with sweetly-scented white flowers, making sense of its common name of Dame’s Violet. Hesperis is a very easy-to-grow cottage garden favourite that will self-seed once established. When Hesperis is happy it makes a tall plant over 1m so a little support is sometimes an advantage. It makes a lovey cut flower on its own and is invaluable as a filler with roses and other May and June flowers from the cutting patch Hardy biennial.
