Cineraria Mixed Flower Seeds: Description:Although these flowering plants like bright light, they cannot tolerate direct sunlight. They do well when potted in a peat-based soil that is kept moist, but not overly wet. The flowers start to wilt if they don’t get the conditions they like.The cineraria plants grown in shady conditions display the most intense colours. Planting the seedlings in a well-draining soil that is rich in organic matter results in healthy blooms. You can add mulch around the plants when the seedlings begin to grow, to retain moisture in the soil and keep the ground cool.Cinerarias are excellent flowering plants for containers, bedding and landscape plantings. Besides being stunning ornamental plants, they are also used for the purpose of topical application for the treatment of cataracts.Hollyhock Flower Seeds:Description:A group of well grown Hollyhocks in bloom is worth going to see. It is really the color that we look for, because the leaves are large, coarse and grow mostly in clumps at the base of the plant. The long spikes of flowers grow from. 5 feet to 8 feet high and there are usually from five to nine blossoms in bloom on each well grown stalk. The average size is about 2 inches or 3 inches across, but 5-inch blooms can be had if good attention is given. The colors range from white to almost black and include shades of pink, flesh, rose-pink, salmon-rose, golden yellow, canary-yellow, dark red, purple-crimson, dark maroon, white and combinations of practically all these colors with either white centers or white margins. Linnaeus, who named this plant, used both Alcea (Latin form) and Althea(Greek form) from the Greek word for 'to cure'.
