Description
Tall varieties of Kangaroo Paws in mixed colours of red, yellow, pink and apricot. Growing to in excess of 1.5m, these form stately clumps of long-lasting flowers suitable for most well-drained soils. Cut plants back once they finish flowering and water the base of plants only.
We recommend the use of Wildflower Seed Starter Granules for improved germination rates and speed. These granules provide chemicals normally found in bushfire smoke that stimulate native seed germination.
Plant Height: 2m
We hope you enjoy these Wildflower seeds, just another great example of seeds from Mr Fothergill’s!
| How To Grow |
Sow in warm areas anytime. In frost areas when danger of frost is over. Fill pots or seed tray with moist sandy soil and compress. Sow seeds thinly on the surface and cover with soil mix to the thickness of the seeds. It is beneficial to add Wildflower Seed Starter granules to soil surface. Keep moist. Cover with clear polythene – remove when germination starts. Place in warm shady position to germinate fully. Transplant seedlings to individual containers when large enough to handle. Keep watered and plant out to permanent position when about 8cm (3in) high. Water regularly around roots until established, then weekly in dry weather. Use light applications of low phosphate slow release organic fertilizer. |
