Transform your garden into a fragrant haven with our premium Evening Scented Stock seeds (Matthiola longipetala).

Originally hailing from the sun-drenched landscapes of Portugal and Spain, this wildflower variety has been cherished for centuries for its potent fragrance. Imagine relaxing on your patio, surrounded by the intoxicating scent of these beautiful blooms. Our 1000-seed pack ensures you have an abundance of these charming flowers to enjoy throughout the season.

These unique flowers, sometimes referred to as ‘gillyflowers’ in historical texts, possess a fascinating characteristic: their seemingly wilted appearance during the day gives way to vibrant, fragrant blossoms as evening approaches. This makes them an ideal choice for planting near outdoor living spaces, windows, or pathways where their night-time perfume can be fully appreciated. The Evening Scented Stock is remarkably cold-hardy, thriving even in USDA Zone 1, making it a versatile addition to gardens across various climates. Experience the magic of a garden that awakens with scent as the sun sets.

Cultivating Evening Scented Stock from seed is a rewarding experience. Sow seeds in early spring, just below the soil surface, ensuring consistent moisture until germination occurs within 10-15 days at temperatures between 60-65°F. For a continuous display of fragrant blooms, consider successive plantings every four weeks. In milder regions, a late fall sowing can provide early spring flowers. These plants prefer fairly dry soil once established, and surprisingly, a less fertile, drier environment can enhance their already potent fragrance. Enjoy the simplicity of growing these low-maintenance, high-impact perfume plants.

Beyond their captivating scent, Evening Scented Stock offers a unique visual appeal with their delicate purple and pink hues. The 1000 count of seeds provides ample opportunity to create sweeping drifts of these fragrant beauties or to intersperse them among other garden favorites. They are an excellent choice for cottage gardens, moon gardens, or any space where nocturnal fragrance is desired. The high germination rate ensures a successful planting experience, allowing you to quickly enjoy the benefits of these charming and aromatic flowers. Bring the allure of a scented garden to your home with these exceptional seeds.

For those interested in cut flowers, stems with freshly opened blossoms can be harvested. Simply strip any foliage that would fall below the waterline to ensure longevity in your vase. These GMO-free seeds promise a natural and authentic gardening experience. Embrace the simple pleasure of a garden filled with the sweet, ethereal fragrance of Evening Scented Stock, a true delight for the senses that transforms ordinary evenings into extraordinary aromatic experiences.
