Bodnant Garden Seed Collection
Bodnant Garden (Gardd Bodnant) is a world-famous garden set against the stunning backdrop of the Carneddau mountains of Snowdonia. Created over 150 years, with plants collected and brought to Britain from far afield, and the incredible vision of generations of the McLaren family and head gardeners
This garden is renowned for having year-round colour, fragrance and is home to National Collections and Champion Trees.
Our seed collection is inspired by plants within this garden and so includes varieties that are highly fragrant.
Our favourite is Heliotrope, also known as Cherry Pie, which is easy to grow but produces intense violet-purple flowers, which are strongly scented and highly attractive to butterflies, bees and other pollinators. A versatile plant that can be grown in hanging baskets, containers or borders. Continues to flower all summer.

The Hidcote Garden Seed Collection
Hidcote is a world-famous Arts and Crafts-inspired garden, covering 10.5 acres, with intricately designed outdoor spaces in the rolling Cotswold hills.
Lawrence Johnston designed the garden in phases from 1907 to 1938. He furnished borders with newly discovered plants and exotic rarities gathered during plant hunting expeditions from around the world.
Taking advice from the Head Gardener at Hidcote, our seed collection is designed to give you quick and easy colour in between seasons.
’Throughout May at Hidcote the self-sown annuals, makes for a colourful addition to borders and path edges where the seed has settled. A packet of annual seeds can take the strain as Spring flowers come to the end and Summer borders gather momentum.”
Lottie Allen, Head Gardener Hidcote Garden
Our favourite is Calendula Orange King which produces brilliant orange double flowers in April and May on bright green foliage and if they are planted in clumps they seem to glow at night.
