Bells

of I

rela

nd Bells of IrelandMolucella laevis

Plug lead time: 9 weeks

Irish Green BellsAvailable in: Plugs & raw seedPlant Height: 50-90cm

Excellent cut and dried flower with extra tall, lime green flower or calyces that top 25-30cm. The flower itself is an insignificant white bloom in the centre of the bell. Harvesting can start as soon as stems are long enough and calyxes are well formed. Pinching delays cutting but gives more stems per plant. NB: the true leaves should be removed from between the calyxes for the best orna-mental product. 150 Seeds/gram.

1263 Green

CalendulaCalendula officinalis

Plug lead time: 8 weeks

NakayasuAvailable in: Raw seed onlyPlant Height: 100cm

Nakayasu is basal branch-ing, with good vigour and uniformity. Calendula’s pre-fer cool temperatures, how-ever during the cold season do not over water as moist conditions will lead to black rot. When grown during hot conditions the flowers will be smaller. By pinch-ing the centre stem 60 days after sowing, the plant will produce 8-10 good qual-ity cut flowers. 130 Seeds/gram.

1291 Golden 1290 Orange

PrinceAvailable in: Plugs & raw seedPlant Height: 60cm

Becoming increasingly popular, Prince can be grown year round as not day length sensitive. Good double flowered cutting series for cool greenhouse and outdoor culture, suit-able for forcing. 130 Seeds/gram

1289 Indian

CampanulaCampanula medium

Plug lead time: 13 weeks

ChampagneAvailable in: Plugs & pelleted seedPlant Height: 65cm

Champion is an attractive cut flower which is also suitable for production in big containers. Fast finish-ing, high yielding series has bell shaped, 4cm diam-eter blooms. Uniform, basal branching plants with 8-10 stems per plant. Although Campanula medium is a beautiful cut flower, which should not be left out of any spring bouquet, it had one disadvantage in that it needed a two year cul-tivation period. It there-fore hardly found its way to the consumer. This has changed with the all new Champagne. Series. The wonderful flowers, short cultivation period and high productivity mean first class cut flowers.
