Didiscus Madonna Mixed

The full Didiscus palette in a single packet. Madonna Mixed produces slightly domed, pincushion-like flower heads in a pastel wash of soft powder-blue, creamy white, and blush pink — gentle colours that harmonise with almost any palette and act as the perfect bridge between larger focal flowers in a bouquet or border.

Approximately 100 seeds per packet. Seeds require total darkness to germinate — cover completely. Vase life 7–10 days.

• Trachymene coerulea 'Madonna Mixed' — Half-Hardy Annual (H2)
• Height: 60cm | Flowers: July–September
• Sow indoors February–April; cover completely — needs darkness
• Full sun; well-drained soil — plant out June, handle roots carefully
• Cut-and-come-again — harvest regularly for more stems

Grow it with Salvia Victoria Blue for a combination of soft pastel pincushions and deep indigo spikes that is one of the most design-led pairings in the cutting garden.
