FLOWER-CANTERBURY BELLS Think of a tranquil cottage garden – think of Canterbury Bells with their beautiful semi-double blooms in pink white and blue. A favorite producing large spikes of attractive bell-like flowers in a mix of colors. Very good as a cut flower, up to 75cm. Good for borders & in informal gardens. This plant is an excellent backdrop for your shorter annuals & perennials.

Plant after last frost or early Autumn. Sow the fine seeds thinly in trays or pots in good compost. Place in a cold frame or unheated glasshouse. Protect from slugs especially during the winter. Deadhead to prolong the flowering period.

More About Us

ABSeeds is an Australian owned business trading under the umbrella of Direct Compost Solutions which is owned and managed by Victoria Brun.

We as a company endeavor to provide to the public, Organic, Old Fashioned, Heritage, and Open-pollinated seeds that have not been genetically modified.

We purchased the business in November 2018 and renamed it to ABSeeds (All ‘Bout Seeds) to make the title shorter and represent what we hope to achieve with this business in the years ahead.

Seeds that we can’t grow ourselves we will acquire from people who grow for us, or we may purchase seeds from reputable heritage seed companies.
