Mignonette - Mixed - Reseda odorata - Natural garden fragrance for scented beds - Fresh Seeds

The mixed mignonette (Reseda odorata) is an incredibly graceful annual plant that charms with its subtle beauty and intense, pleasant fragrance. Its upright, branched stems grow to about 30 cm in height, while small white-green and red-green flowers create a delightful, natural composition. This is a unique plant; though modest in appearance, it enchants anyone who smells its aroma. It introduces an aura of peace and freshness to the garden, making it perfect for relaxation spots near gazebos, on balconies, and terraces. In the garden, it becomes a beautiful background for other flowers and an unmatched magnet for bees and butterflies.

Sowing depth

Sow mignonette seeds at a depth of approximately 0.3 cm. This depth ensures that young plants germinate quickly and evenly, creating healthy, aromatic clumps.

Sowing time

Sowing into the ground can begin in April and continue until June. It is worth choosing a sunny and warm position, as the plant develops best there, and its scent becomes most intense in full sun.

Spacing

To obtain abundant branching and impressive clumps, it is recommended to maintain a spacing of 15 x 20 cm. This gives the plants enough space to grow, allowing their flowers to form a dense, fragrant carpet.

Flowering period

Mignonette blooms in July and adorns the garden until October. Its delicate flowers introduce a romantic atmosphere of late summer and early autumn to the space, at a time when many other plants have already finished flowering.

Cultivation

This plant grows best in full sun, on fertile, humous, and permeable soil with a neutral or slightly alkaline reaction. Before sowing, it is advisable to dig over the ground with compost or natural manure to give young plants a good start. During the growth period, mignonette responds perfectly to regular fertilisation with preparations for flowering plants. To encourage it to bush out and prolong flowering, it is worth pinching off the tops of the shoots and removing faded inflorescences.

Mignonette blends beautifully with popular bedding plants such as stocks, daisies, or sage. Together, they create harmonious, fragrant combinations that make the garden teem with colour and life throughout the summer.
