Notes
'StoX Antique Rose' stock (Matthiola incana 'StoX Antique Rose') is an annual for borders, cut flowers, and containers. It handles cool weather and a light frost. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything. The fragrant blooms appear in spring and again in summer, and they attract butterflies and bees.
Pairs well with Aster, Pink, Cornflower, and Praying Hands hosta.
