Pink Panther produces large, delicate almond-pink flowers on long, strong stems. The soft colouring and elegant form make it particularly lovely for cutting, with a sweet scent that works beautifully in bouquets and wedding flowers. A vigorous and reliable variety, it brings a gentle, romantic pink to the summer garden.
Sow from October to November for earlier flowers, or from late January to April for summer flowering. Sow into deep pots or root trainers, covering the seed with approximately 1cm of compost. Keep at around 15°C until germination. Autumn-sown plants should be overwintered in a cold frame or unheated greenhouse, then planted out in spring. Pinch out the growing tip when seedlings are around 7 to 10cm tall to encourage strong side shoots. Provide support as the plants grow and pick flowers regularly to encourage continued flowering.
