Love Bar

An enchanting collection of romantic blooms to fill your garden with love.

Start to grow your lovely flowers between March and June.

Unwrap the bar, gently remove the paper envelope and place the Growbar in a shallow container with the protective paper facing up: a takeaway food tray is ideal.

Once expanded, remove protective paper. Pour half a litre of water into the tray and position the Growbar indoors on a warm, bright windowsill or, if danger of frost has passed, in a sunny and sheltered spot outside.

When the Growbar is nearly dry, gently pour water into the base of the tray, not directly onto the bar as it may crumble. You can be sure your Growbar is perfectly moist if it remains the colour of a rich dark ginger cake!

After a few weeks you should have a bar neatly dotted with little seedlings. These will be happy growing in the bar for a further month in their sunny location.

When the seedlings have produced 4-8 leaves, you can then gently separate them, being careful not to damage the delicate roots, and plant them in a sunny weed-free spot in the garden.

Plants grown in the ground with plenty of space and sunlight will produce more abundant flowers but it is also possible to grow the seedlings in large containers on a balcony or patio.

How to identify your seedlings:

Forget Me Not seedlings have oval-shaped leaves that have a deep vein down the centre.

Love Lies Bleeding seedlings have egg shaped leaves with a red stem.

Love in a Mist seedlings have delicate leaves with long feathery fronds.
