Biennial seed sown in summer will give you a great display of flowers through spring and early summer the following year. If you sow biennials in summer, you’ve stolen a march on the following spring.
Join flower farmer and florist Georgie Newbery as she sows seed for harvest next spring.
Georgie has lots of tips and tricks to make sure seed germinates in the heat of the summer, and seedlings flourish for planting out in late summer or autumn. Join this session and your garden next spring will be the envy of your neighbours.
People often find seed sowing surprisingly stressful, struggling to choose the right compost, the right seed, struggling to know how much to sow, how to water, how to prevent seeds from damping off. Georgie will encourage you to slow down, take a deep breath, sow what you need, and be brave looking after your seedlings.
Suitable for:
Enthusiastic flower growers, arrangers and florists keen to learn more about growing flowers for pleasure in the garden and in the vase.
Here's what some recent students had to say about this demo:
"Have just done the biennials online demo with Georgie and it was ace. Only found her about a month ago and have been watching her YouTube videos ever since. The demos and workshops take it to another level. Thank you! Have also done the hardy annuals, sweet pea and rose workshop. All amazing. If you love growing flowers then Georgie's courses and YouTube channel are a must."
