May is an exciting time for anyone wanting to grow cut flowers. Now is the ideal time to sow many annual flower varieties that are stars of the summer garden as well as looking good indoors arranged in bouquets and vases. The trick is to choose cut and come again varieties that are both easy to grow and super productive to keep the supply of flowers coming.
Flowers grow so quickly that even if you think you've left it too late you really haven't as long as you get on with sowing seeds this month. You have the choice of sowing these varieties directly in the ground or into pots or trays indoors ready to transplant outside once the seedlings are large enough to handle.
