I would like to grow some stocks for cutting. Please recommend some scented varieties and when they should be planted/seeds sown. TIA.

    I've not grown them since I was a child, but they are very scented- Brompton Stocks

    Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit.
    Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.

    Thanks @Pete.8. Looks like I've missed the boat for sowing in summer. I think I'll get some garden-ready plug plants.

    Read that discussion title too quickly, thought it was about "scented socks". ;)
    Apparently, those (the socks, not the stocks) are widely available on A***n and Al*b*b*.
    You are invited to a virtual visit of my garden (in English or in French).
