Popular Flower Seeds

Often, the most popular varieties are favoured by so many gardeners for good reason. We’ve collated the most popular types of flower seeds in one place below for ease. This includes favourites like cosmos, marigold, nigella, pansy, sunflower and sweet peas. Cosmos are ideal for producing masses of frilly, textured flowers in a variety of colours on just a small patch. Marigolds are a favourite, no-fuss annual that bring the colour of sunshine into your garden. Nasturtium are fully edible flowers in bright yellows, reds and oranges. Nigellas (love in a mist) are a cottage garden classic with fabulous cut flowers and foliage that makes a perfect vase filler. Pansies and violas (their smaller cousins) provide a splash of much-needed winter colour when little else is in bloom. Poppies produce eye-catching summer displays, traditionally red with blotched throats but now available in a wide range of colours. Sunflowers are a favourite for growing with children who will marvel at their bright faces while providing a feast for birds when the seeds mature. Sweet peas are the archetypal cottage garden flower with a climbing habit and fabulous scent, while wildflowers encourage and support all kind of wildlife and beneficial insects into your garden.
