Thompson & Morgan

Nicotiana 'Whisper Mixed' F1 is a 'must-have' border plant, filling spaces quickly with its fragranced flowers. Elegant upright flower stems tower above large basal rosettes of leaves, bearing petite flowers that fade from red to pink to white, giving the effect of three colours on each plant. The evening fragrance of British bred Nicotiana 'Whisper Mixed' only adds to its irresistible charm! Plant this elegant annual in large drifts throughout beds and borders and places where you can appreciate their fragrance.Sow Nicotiana from February to April on the surface of a good seed compost and gently firm down. Do not cover the seed. Place the seed tray in a propagator at a temperature of 20-25C (68-77F) or seal it inside a polythene bag. Keep the soil damp but not wet. Do not exclude light as this aids germination which usually takes 14-21 days.When seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant into 7.5cm (3") pots and grow them on in cooler conditions until large enough to plant outdoors. When verbena plants are well grown and all risk of frost has passed, acclimatise them to outdoor conditions over 7 to 10 days. Transplant outdoors in full sun or semi-shade on moist, fertile, well-drained soil at a distance of 30cm (12") apart.Product specifications:Position: Full Sun, Sun or Semi ShadeHeight: Up to 100cm when fully establishedSpread: Up to 45cm when fully establishedSupplied as 1x Nicotiana x hybrida 'Whisper Mixed' F1 Hybrid seed packet (approx. 70 seeds)Flowering period – July to SeptemberImages shown are for guidance only of the expected results from plants upon maturity.
