Seeds to sow in June

June is the month of mid-summer. You can tend your patch until late in the evening and make the most of the long days.

Most summer crops can still be sown, although it is getting a little late for courgettes, winter squashes and cucumbers (sow until early June). Keep on top of your salad sowing now and after solstice sow chicory, orientals, kohlrabi and Florence fennel which won’t bolt as quickly with the days getting shorter again.

It is not too late to direct sow flowers like poppies, zinnias, calendula, cosmos, sunflowers, or nasturtium.
