Clarkia seeds — dainty cottage colour, effortlessly easy

Clarkia are among the easiest and prettiest hardy annuals to grow — slender, upright stems lined with masses of dainty, often double flowers in soft pinks, salmon, mauve, lilac and white. Quick from a direct sowing and wonderfully undemanding, they bring an airy, old-fashioned charm to our flower seed range and weave beautifully through informal borders. New to flowers? Our flower growing guide gets you started.

Scatter, thin and enjoy — the calendar shows when to sow.

Easy colour for borders and posies

Light, graceful and quick to flower, clarkia is a natural for our annual flowers and wildflowers, while its slender, well-filled stems and good vase life also make it a charming, informal cut flower. The closely related godetia is grown in just the same way.

Growing clarkia from seed

Clarkia is best sown direct where it is to flower, scattered thinly on raked soil in full sun, either in autumn for early, sturdy plants or in spring. It resents transplanting, so thin rather than move seedlings, and avoid over-rich ground, which gives leaf at the expense of flower.

Planning an easy annual border or a posy patch? Here's where to look next.

Is clarkia easy to grow from seed?
Very — it is one of the most fuss-free hardy annuals, germinating readily when sown direct in cool soil and flowering quickly. Is clarkia the same as godetia?
They are very closely related; godetia is now generally classed within Clarkia, and the two are grown in exactly the same way. Should I sow clarkia direct or transplant?
Sow direct where it is to flower, in autumn or spring. Clarkia resents root disturbance, so thin the seedlings rather than moving them. What conditions does it prefer?
Full sun and light, free-draining soil. Avoid over-rich ground, which encourages leaf at the expense of flowers.
