FLOWER-GODETIA-DWARF DOUBLE MIX is a charming mix of bright, upward facing flowers, compact & colorful. A favorite for beds, borders & containers. One of the brightest, most free-flowering summer gems. Double & semi-double wavy-edged blooms in a lovely range of colors. An excellent pretty border plant to 40cm, easy to grow. A mixture containing a wide range of colors from white & pink to crimson & dark red. This is the very popular easy to grow tender annual, Godetia. Apart from being in flower for ten weeks or more, & for use as a cut flower, they also make charming pot plants for spring or summer.
Godetia seeds can be directly seeded into your flower garden or started indoors four to six weeks before the last frost date in your area. Sow seeds early in the season & cover lightly with fine garden or potting soil. Godetia plants do not like to be crowded.

More About Us
When I started this journey in 2009, I found nothing existed commercially, that was reasonably priced and easy to use. There was a homemade system which I also found was not that user-friendly.
Then a friend of mine told me about a homemade method she used. However, when I tried her method, I found this also didn’t suit my needs, as it too had flaws that I considered where important. It did not keep vermin out, did not have a lockable lid and (to me) looked unsightly in the garden
