Wallflowers are biennial plants that produce a mass of bright flowers in the second year, but which also self-sow readily and therefore can come back year after year. Wallflowers do best in moist but well-drained soils, in a sunny location. They'll tolerate partial shade. Bedding (biennial) wallflowers work well when planted with spring bulbs such as tulips and daffodils, and can also be grown in pots.

To grow wallflowers from seed: Sow indoors in late winter or outdoors once night temperatures remain above 5°C/40°F, roughly 12 weeks before the last frost. Space plants are about 30cm/12in apart. When seedlings have two true leaves, thin to one per station.

Wallflowers develop thick, fleshy roots (thicker than daffodils), so it's best to plant them where they won't be disturbed for at least three years. They are not usually bothered by pests or diseases but can fall victim to clubroot if grown in infertile soils. To increase the chances of getting seeds, remove spent flowers before they go to seed.
