Many ornamental and fruit crops are sown for seedlings in January.
Due to the peculiarities of their development, these crops may bloom late. And if we are talking about fruit crops, you may be left without a harvest. But in this article we will talk about flowers.
Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", an agronomist and landscape designer, told us which flowers need to be sown for seedlings in January.
Verbena hybrid
It is rightfully considered a garden decoration. It begins to bloom in June and pleases the eye until frost.
But the plant has one serious drawback: the seeds germinate poorly. It will be difficult without a growth stimulator.
Delphinium hybrid
Another contender for early sowing. The reason is that the seeds of this plant need stratification.
After sowing, the seeds in pots are left outside and buried in the snow.
In the spring, you will need to pick the seedlings and then transplant them into the ground.
Eustoma
A very beautiful, but rather demanding plant.
Purchase a flower substrate in advance, sow the seeds shallowly, and provide additional lighting for 10-12 hours a day.
