Clover Roads Organic Farm
Organic Heritage Seed
Our flower selections will never be our biggest attraction, since we concentrate our efforts on the Heritage vegetables, however, we update regularly, and offer flowers that have given us joy each season. These selections require very little maintenance, handle weed pressure well, and do very well in our heavy clay soil.
Morning Glory - Mixed  [Ipomea]    Annual

Predominantly purple, this mix also includes some pinks and the occasional blue. A favorite of hummingbirds, this vine is suitable for trellising in containers, as a ground cover, as well as used as a  traditional climber. Can be started indoors 3 to 4 weeks before your last Spring frost, or direct sown one week prior.
Grows 6 to 8 feet tall, prefers full sun [although did fine for us in part shade].

Pkt is 40 seeds - $3.00


Sweet William - Mixed  [Dianthus Barbatus]   Perennial

Natures Can-Can dancers. Bold, bright, and vibrant colours distinguish these early bloomers. From the hottest reds to the most purest of whites, they begin to bloom for us about mid-June. Start early indoors or direct sow in May to June. Blooms second year. Self seeds readily.  Prefers full sun and well drained soil. Z 3-7.

Wild Sunflower  [Helianthus Maximillianii]   Perennial

Multi 3" blooms per stem, and 5 to 6 feet tall this sunflower is beautiful as a cutflower in bouquets, perfect for naturalized gardens or as an addition to a wildflower bed. Be warned, it is a very aggressive grower once established, and propagates both by root and by seed. This late Summer bloomer can be controlled by deadheading after bloom and restricting the root area at planting time. Can be started indoors anywhere from 8 to 10 weeks before your last Spring frost, winter sown, or direct sown after your last Spring frost. Prefers full sun and will do well in any soil type.  Z 3-9
