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.

Lupines are high on the charts around here, we all love the long flares in soft colors. They bloom early and also behave a bit like perennials, so usually you don't have to sow them every year. Do you want healthy plants? Then seeding is recommended. Be sure to protect them well from slugs, which love the leaves. Lupin 'Gallery Pink' is beautiful pink with white highlights.

Indoor pre-seeding
Pre-sow from February to no later than the end of March or in the fall. Soak the seeds in water 24 hours days in advance so they germinate better. Press the seeds about 0.5 cm into the soil. Place them in a room at about 18 degrees in a bright spot but away from direct sunlight. Keep the soil moist. Repot once the seedlings have nice leaves and keep cool, lupines soon grow too fast! Harden off outdoors and transplant from mid-April with 30 cm spacing. Overwinter autumn seedlings in a (cold) greenhouse and transplant in early April.

Direct Sowing
Sow directly into the soil from April to June for flowering plants the following year. Press the seeds 0.5 cm into the soil. Keep the soil moist. Thin out if necessary or sow neatly 30 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.
