Specialty Flower Seeds

Specialty flower seeds include a variety of unique and often less commonly found flowers that may not fit into traditional flower categories.

This includes plants ideal for bouquet fillers, as well as distinctive flowers like ranunculus, eucalyptus, and geum, each offering unique aesthetics and growing requirements.

Bouquet Fillers and Geum: Typically early spring under cover or directly outdoors after the last frost.

Ranunculus: In cooler climates, plant in autumn for spring blooms. In milder climates, they can be planted in late winter.

Eucalyptus: Sow indoors during late winter to early spring, as they need a long growth period before transplanting.

Check the packaging or product page for more information.

Ranunculus should be planted in well-draining soil with the claws facing downwards, about 1-2 inches deep. They prefer full sun and may need protection from heavy frosts. Water regularly, but avoid waterlogging.

Eucalyptus plants are prized for their aromatic leaves and rapid growth. They can be used for ornamental purposes, as well as for cut foliage in floral arrangements.

Growing eucalyptus requires a sunny position and well-draining soil.

Yes, many bouquet filler plants thrive in containers, making them ideal for balcony gardens or where ground space is limited. Ensure containers have good drainage and use a high-quality potting mix to support their growth.

Watering needs vary:

• Geum and Bouquet Fillers: Require consistent moisture, especially during dry periods.
• Ranunculus and Eucalyptus: Prefer moderate watering, being careful not to overwater, particularly for eucalyptus, which does not tolerate wet feet.
