A tall, fragrant, and high-yielding variety. The ‘Stox’ series is bred for uniformity, strong stems, and high double-flower percentages. Perfect for cut flowers with a spicy sweet clove scent.

 

What Makes the Stox variety so special?

  • Highly Uniform Growth – Produces tall, straight stems with consistent bloom timing.
  • High Percentage of Double Blooms – Unlike some stock varieties that require early selection for doubles, Stox has been bred to produce a high percentage of fully double flowers naturally at almost 100%. 
  • Long, Strong Stems –  making it perfect for cutting.
  • Dense, Full Flower Spikes – Each stem is packed full with ruffled blooms that are highly sought after by florists.
  • Quick Blooming – A fast-maturing variety compared to some traditional stocks.
  • Sweet, Spicy Fragrance – Has the signature clove scented blooms 

 

When to Sow: Jan - Sep 

HOW TO SOW SCENTED STOCKS:
Sow indoors - Sow into moist well drained compost and just cover with a sprinkle of soil. Ideal temp. 18°C.  After germination grow seedlings in cool conditions for a few days and it will be easier to see the different colour seedlings, the pale green seedlings are doubles.

    We make every effort to provide British seeds where possible, but in some cases our British Growers are unable to grow in sufficient quantities to meet our demand or the seeds are subject to Plant breeders' rights which means it is only possible for us to buy these seeds from certain non UK flower farms
