Always look forward to anything you have to show. I’ve found that mixing ‘dust like’ seeds with sand and putting them in a shaker bottle helps with the evenness of sowing.
Thank you for all the beauty you bring to our lives! Simply amazing and pure delight! Here in western WA state US we have both the purple and white foxgloves, mostly purple ones, growing wild everywhere. They're lovely! 👵🌸🌿🍃
is the white version of certain plants some kind of albino strain? what i mean is, there seems to be a lot of variety of colour with various plants, but the more i look plants up, almost invariably there seems to be an 'alba' 'album' 'albicans' version of it? is there something unique about the colour white? does pretty much every flower have a white variant, and why would that be so.? is it a common mutation or default? and is it true that the white versions (of a plant) is almost always the most fragrant?
If you buy a plant in flower this year the seed will scatter and by autumn you should have established little plants that will flower next year. Once you start the cycle you have flowers every year. Besides, after the first flowering most plants produce lateral buds which will flower the following year. Foxgloves often behave as short lived perennials.
My dear Sarah, I enjoy so immensely all your videos, you are just glorious like all your gorgeous results with all your flowers 💐 Thank you.
What a wonderful place to live , I’m enjoying the scenery behind you.
Could not agree more with the video... beautiful! Love those bi-annuals...
My deliveries from Sarah Raven have kept me going!

Have not thought much about this group but definitely need to plant some. Thanks for sharing all your information.
Just love your videos.

Find the seeds are top quality, didn't realise that plants and seeds can vary so much.
Love your garden, was hoping to go to one of your open days, then lock down arrived hopefully soon when all this has finished.
I use a salt-shaker for foxglove seeds and have found it ideal for the job
Lovely presentation, thank you for sharing... Stay safe...
Dianthus barbatus have a lovely fragance...the Minutisas' my grandmother
Loving sowing seeds this year. Can you grow the poppies in a tray? How soon should the seedlings come up?
Good vids
Interesting
Good luck ❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏
Do you moisturize the soil before and after putting the seeds in?
I so want to grow the icelandic poppies (especially the Champaign Bubbles one ❤) from seed but they hate me! 😭
Me too! Have scattered literally 000's of poppy seeds of all varieties but no luck! 😭

So, if I buy a foxglove at the nursery and plant it, when it seeds itself, it will not bloom until the second year?
