Sustainability

We try to produce as sustainably as possible to keep our footprint small. Therefore, our letterbox boxes are made of grass paper and tomato leaf pulp is the basic component of the seed bags. The printing is either made of paper that is 30-70% recycled paper or paper that comes from agricultural waste. In addition, you have the option to plant a tree when you place an order through Regreener.

Gifting

Snapdragon is a beautiful flower that loves to steal the show in the garden and in your bouquet. 'Appleblossom' is a subtle seducer with its soft pink and yellow center. Ideal if you are not so fond of bright colors. Try the snapdragon in multiple colors, because you'll quickly fall in love with it (and then there's no turning back).

Indoor pre-seeding
Pre-sowing can be done in early March in potting soil mixed with vermiculite, do not cover the seeds. They grow somewhat slowly, so don't sow too late. After germination, keep them in a bright spot but away from direct sunlight in a cool room. Repot once the seedlings are 10 cm tall and top the seedling by cutting off the top. Harden off outdoors and transplant in early May at 25 cm spacing.

Direct sowing
Sow directly into the soil starting in April. Do not cover them; they need light to germinate. Do not do this during heavy rain or on hot days to prevent the seed from washing away or drying out. Keep the soil moist. After germination, thin out to a few seedlings 25 cm apart.

Which is what?

The terms may be new to you, here's what they all mean:

Annual- plants that bloom one summer and then die
Biennial- plants that you sow one year, and bloom the next year (and then die)
Perennial- plants that bloom several summers
Perennial- plants that survive frost and last for years

How many hours of sunshine?

Annuals plants almost without exception grow only in full sun. That means that you preferably need more than 8 hours of summer sun in the place where you want to grow them, for example from 10 - 18 hours. 6 - 7 hours will also go a long way, but the plants will grow just a little slower.

What soil?

Unless otherwise specified, annuals want nutrient-rich soil with extra compost in the spring. Read more about it in the Seed Guide.

Storing seeds

On the package of your seeds you will find the shelf life. You can use them until the date you see on it. An opened package is best stored in an airtight box in a cool and dark place, such as a closet in the hallway. Not sure if the germination is still good? Then it's best to buy a new pack. We deliberately choose small amounts of seeds in the packs so you don't have to waste seeds. Do you have any questions about this? Call 033 - 202 43 38 or email to [email protected], and we will help you further.
