Borders of dwarf wall flowers are in bloom and what a heavenly fragrance, I love it



Happy new year
Arif

Very pretty indeed. How long do you think they will bloom, i am thinking of planting some in pots but not sure about their bloom duration. Will they go till april?

I didnt find wallflower in any of the catalogs received.. they look nice and uniform..

What is the common local name of Wall flower? Does it have one colour or multi?

@ khabbab.....i tried them last year..they were earliest to bloom and last annual that i plucked out of the border. though they became shabby in the end which is April. I kept them to save seeds but it appeared they were not ready to die soon and then my patience gave up ...

@ munir...only yellow color is available...and they are available with the same name

Grateful.

@munir..i stand corrected. Today i stumbled upon reddish orange cultivar of wall flower in Haripur.

Farhan, thank u for remembering. I ll look for seedlings in the nurseries. Hope , they can be planted these days? If not, then when?

Hi Munir.you can easily get Wall flower seedlings from Fateh Muhammad or Pak flora nursery at Peshwar mod.please do not pick seedlings if they have shown any flower buds.it because when an annual has shown flower buds it means it has finished its life span.

I have some rust,some light yellow and some white, deep yellow is the one I like
You can plant them in situ, They produce a lot of seeds, Jut mix seed with sand and pour it in 1/2 inch deep channel, water and wait. You can also sow them 2-4 weeks apart. The bees love it.
