Stock, Spray Antique Pink

(Matthiola incana) 90-110 days. Beautiful shades of ivory and rose give this deliciously fragrant stock the appearance of large apple blossoms! This “spray type” makes many side branches and hails from Japan, where stocks are beloved for home gardening and ikebana. Plants reach 2 feet tall and produce lightly ruffled blooms. This beautiful cousin of the cabbage has heavenly scented flowers that also taste yummy, and they have a fantastic clove-like essence! We love stocks for flavoring cookies and other baked goods, and they make a flavorful addition to salads, fresh spring rolls and more.
