Stock
Stock offers a wonderfully spicy, distinctive scent. Plant it in spring several weeks before your region's last frost date -- this annual thrives in cool temperatures and stops blooming once hot weather arrives. It's especially wonderful in windowboxes and planters at nose level where it's sometimes subtle effect can best be appreciated.
It is slightly spirelike and comes in a wide range of colors. Stock makes a great cut flower, perfuming bouquets as well as the border. It grows best in full sun or part shade and moist, well-drained soil.
