Alyssum Rosie O'day Seeds
$3.90
Unit price perLobularia maritima
Rosie O'Day is a compact Sweet Alyssum producing masses of fragrant, deep rose-red flowers on low-growing plants reaching approximately 15 cm. Its spreading habit makes it ideal for garden edging, rockeries, containers, pathways and the front of cottage garden beds.
The small, nectar-rich flowers are highly attractive to bees and beneficial insects, making Alyssum particularly useful around vegetable gardens and productive growing areas. In suitable climates it can persist for 2–3 years, although it is generally treated as an annual in colder regions.
Plants flower for much of the year in mild conditions, with their strongest display typically occurring in spring. Hardy and easy to grow, Rosie O'Day performs in full sun or partial shade and prefers well-drained soil with regular moisture.
Seed count: approximately 3,000 seeds/g
Approximately 1,200 seeds per packet
When to Plant (Australia)
Tropics: Autumn to winter
Subtropics: Year round, best autumn to spring
Mild climates: Year round
Cold climates: Spring after frost
Planting / Sowing
Sow directly or into trays, scattering the fine seed over moist, well-drained soil. Sow very shallowly, pressing gently into the surface and covering only lightly.
Keep consistently moist during germination. Once established, grow in full sun to partial shade and trim lightly after flowering to encourage fresh growth and further blooms.
Due to quarantine restrictions, TAS has an 800g limit per each seed variety and WA has a 10,000 seeds limit per variety.

Flower seeds: As fellow gardening enthusiasts we share the love for planting and nurturing our own flowers in addition to our veggie gardens. Our carefully selected range of flower seeds, available for convenient online purchase, holds a special place in our hearts. Like the endangered vegetables we've championed, these flower varieties face the risk of vanishing forever. Some of these older strains are incredibly rare, and it's a source of immense pride for us to offer and deliver these precious flower seeds Australia-wide.
