MATTHIOLA

Prized for their strong, clover-like fragrance, Matthiola (Stock) can be a showstopper in floral arrangements. This fragrant flower can be grown earlier and later in the season, and even year-round in some climates. Available in single-flower or double-flowering types, Matthiola comes in a variety of saturated hues.

• Greenhouse-grown Matthiola are distinguished from field-grown types by the softer green leaves.
• Tolerates frost but is not suitable for hot, humid climates.
• Offers deer and rabbit resistance.
• Harvest when 3-5 florets have opened.
