Matthiola incana is a perennial plant from the cruciferous family (Brassicaceae). The wild type is native to the Mediterranean region, while cultivated varieties are usually available commercially. With single or double flowers. It can reach a height of up to 50 centimeters.
Sowing instructions
The seeds of Matthiola incana can be sown directly into the bed from April. Pre-growing indoors can be started as early as March.
The sowing depth may be half a centimeter to one centimeter.
At temperatures between 73 to 81 °F (23 and 27 °C), the first seeds germinated after seven days.
I used peat-free herb soil as a substrate.
The growing location should be bright and sunny.
As soon as all the seeds have sprouted, the seedlings can be slowly acclimatized to more and more sunlight.
