Cut Flower Bupleurum Griffithi Seedling Pack

Bupleurum roundifolium

Cut Flower Bupleurum seedlings, grown in Marlborough by Gray Floral, shipping NZ wide.

A fantastic filler that adds a bit of air & sparkle to early summer bouquets. As a 'one cut' each plant is harvested as one stem, so we have double sown these trays so that each plug contains 2 seedlings, 12 plants per seedling pack. As a one cut they can be grown closer together and will happily self sow if you leave one to go to seed. They have fabulous green succulent like foliage and chartreuse sprays. Great in a green/white palette. 

The sap can cause skin irritation when harvesting, so do be aware of this if you have sensitive skin. 

Pack of 6 Bupleurum Griffithi Plants 

Standard NZ shipping included. If you are rural, please select the rural option at checkout to avoid delays in processing your order. 

NOTES ON GROWING

Height: 60cm

Spacing: 20cm

Harvest: When the umbels have started to dome on top - if they are flat or concave they're not quite ready. You may need to snip off side shoots that are not mature as they tend to wilt in the vase. Over mature blooms can still be harvested, though they can shed pollen, and the seed heads are also great for texture. 

Vase life: 7 days

All our seedlings are grown in a custom cut flower mix which contains Trichoderma to assist in healthy root development and resistance to root pathogens. To give your seedlings the best start in your garden we recommend soaking them in a weak seaweed feed (or one of our "Seedling Shots") before planting. 

We are proud to be partnering with Sustaina Grow to package our seedlings in a wool wrap that maintains moisture and protects the seedlings in transit. On arrival, take your plants out of the box and give them a good drink of water - you can leave them wrapped in the wool to do this! When you're ready to plant or pot on you can unwrap the seedlings, but they will happily spend a couple of days in their wool blanket before planting.

This wool liner makes a wonderful mulch mat that can be used with your seedlings or around any plant in your garden. Everything apart from labels (which we hope you'll use in the garden and time and time again) and stickers are compostable, in an effort to keep our shipping sustainable for the environment.
