Ten Week Perfume, Branching Stock Renee's Garden Seed

Nothing compares with the lush beauty and complex spicy-sweet perfume of garden stock. We've sought out the best annual branching variety with a high proportion of double flowers in a beautiful blend of sumptuous colors including vanilla, apple-blossom pink, lilac, carmine, rich purple and white. Reliable and very early blooming, it has the strongest heat tolerance and branching habit of any stock and will reward you with weeks of intensely perfumed, richly hued flowers.

TO START EARLY INDOORS
Start seed indoors in a flat or container of seed starting mix, 6 to 8 weeks before last expected hard freeze. Sow seed thinly, cover 1/4 inch deep, and keep moist but not soggy until germination takes place in 7 to 14 days. Provide a strong light source as soon as seedlings emerge. Seedlings grow quickly and require even moisture at their earliest stages: overwatering encourages “damping off,” or rotting at the soil level.
TRANSPLANT
Space seedlings 10 inches apart when seedlings are large enough to handle.
GROWING NOTES
This early blooming, branching variety produces an abundance of richly scented flowers for indoor bouquets. In the garden, stock’s heavy trusses of bloom are beautiful in beds, borders and containers.
