Coastal Blue

Bring a hint of the seaside to your garden with splashes of coastal blue and white annuals that will shimmer in the breeze, shifting shape and tone through the season, just as the light changes on a seascape.

A restful collection of cottage garden favourites, chosen for their value to wildlife and combined to create drifts of meadowy blooms. Successive flowering over several months will provide a continuous food source for pollinators. Sow directly onto prepared soil. Perfect for wildlife gardens, community spaces and urban ecology.
