Growing garden stock, also known as gillyflower, is a rewarding experience, offering fragrant and colorful blooms in spring and early summer. These cool-season annuals thrive in well-drained soil and full sun to partial shade, making them ideal for borders, containers, and cutting gardens. Stock prefers cooler temperatures and benefits from regular watering and deadheading to encourage continuous flowering. With their sweet, clove-like scent and delicate petals, garden stock adds a touch of elegance and charm to any garden space.
