0:14
about what seeds you can sew in June for
0:16
flowers and most of these will be for
0:19
next year not for this year but for next
0:21
year so if you've got a greenhouse poly
0:23
tunnel or a shed with windows in that
0:26
you wanted to start flowers off so that
0:27
you've got some for next year's garden
0:30
this is the time to be sewing them
0:32
annuals and we can sew these now and
0:37
they will be flowering next year in the
0:39
gardens and a lotments i did this last
0:41

0:43
this year like my loopins I've got my
0:46

0:49
be sewing certain ones so which ones can
0:52
we sew this month so the flowers that we
0:55
can sew this month are fox gloves wall
0:59
flowers sweet william which are a bit
1:02
geraniums colundula which will flower
1:05
this year that's for this year's flowers
1:12
cosmos sunflowers yes you can still get
1:15
sunflowers in at this time of year but
1:17
you need to get them in fast so that
1:19
they flower ready for
1:22
summer next up is poppies californian
1:25
poppies now if you're wanting something
1:28
that will send loads of seeds out
1:30
everywhere or poppies and they will grow
1:33
everywhere like weeds literally so if
1:35
you don't mind where they grow get some
1:38
California poppies in and get some sewn
1:40
and they'll add some nice color to your
1:42
gardens they have yellows they have
1:43

1:47
many different varieties of Californian
1:51
Zenas then there's Larkspur and then
1:55
there's finally marolds you can still
1:57
get some marolds in now so if you
2:00
wanting plenty of flowers for this
2:02
summer and next summer those are the
2:05
flower seeds that you need to be sewing
2:07
for your gardens and a lotments now I
2:10
always encourage people to grow flowers
2:12
in their a lotments because without the
2:14
flowers you won't get the bees and
2:16
without the bees you won't get
2:18
pollination on your fruit or vegetables
2:21
so the more bees that you get to your a
2:22
lotment and gardens the more the bees
2:25
will come and help with pollination and
2:27
then you'll get more and more produce
2:29
down at your a lotments and gardens that
2:31
is one thing that I encourage all a
2:33
lotment holders to have are flowers down
2:36
at your a lotment and have a look at the
2:38
ones that specially attract the bees and
2:40
get them down to the garden so make sure
2:44
you drop us a follow to stay up to date
2:46
with everything that we're getting up to
2:47
down at the a lotment and garden until
2:50
next time everyone remember keep smiling
2:52
keep shining and keep gardening with Ben
