Sowing and cultivating the garden magic of the Virgin in the Green seeds

Nigella damascena, also known as a cold and light germinator, benefits from a one-week refrigeration before sowing to increase germination. Sow the seeds in loose, nutrient-rich soil and press them down lightly, as they require light to germinate. As soon as the risk of frost has passed, you can plant the seedlings outdoors from mid-May, spacing them 20–30 cm apart. Alternatively, you can sow the seeds of Nigella damascena in February/March or early autumn. Cover the seeds lightly with soil to protect them from being blown away. Nigella damascena is an extremely low-maintenance plant and is ideal as a cut or dried flower. The decorative seed capsules can be beautifully dried after flowering and are used in a variety of ways. Further details on sowing and care can be found in the respective product descriptions of our seed article.
