The first step is finding a pot, choose one that is slightly larger with good drainage holes. Place a layer of potting mix in the base of your new pot. For best result, add a layer of Westland Hydroleca before the potting mix. Hydroleca is great at absorbing excess water, keeping plant roots dry. Remove the plant from its current pot. Turn the plant sideways and gently hold by the stems or leaves. Tap the bottom of the pot until the plant slides out. Place the plant into its new pot, ensuring the root ball is slightly below the rim of the new pot. Fill the pot with potting mix and water well.

But here's what makes this mix truly spectacular: it delivers 12 magnificent colours including rose-pink, coral-rose, apricot, scarlet-red, sky blue, silver-blue, silver-rose, lavender, deep violet, pure white, and buttercream yellow—plus stunning bi-colours!

Blooming from mid-summer through to the first hard frosts (typically July-October, peaking August-September), they arrive precisely when you need that fresh injection of colour and energy as earlier annuals start to tire. The flowers are not just beautiful—they're fragrant (a lovely bonus that most annuals lack!), and they make absolutely magnificent cut flowers with a vase life of up to 10-14 days in a cool room. This is a Half-Hardy Annual that's surprisingly easy to grow once you get past the initial indoor sowing stage. Beloved by bees, butterflies, and other pollinators (hence the RHS Plants for Pollinators recognition), 'Duchess Mixed' brings vibrant late-season colour, florist-quality blooms, and joyful cottage garden exuberance to borders, cutting gardens, and containers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRead More\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border: 1px solid #e0e0e0; border-radius: 8px; padding: 16px; margin-bottom: 12px; background-color: #fafafa; transition: all 0.3s ease;\"\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"color: #005bd3; cursor: pointer; font-weight: 600; font-size: 1.05em; margin: -16px; padding: 16px; border-radius: 8px; list-style: none; display: flex; align-items: center; transition: background-color 0.2s ease;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"margin-right: 10px; font-size: 1.2em;\"\u003e🌿\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan\u003eUnderstanding the Plant\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"padding: 20px 0 4px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eCallistephus chinensis\u003c\/em\u003e 'Duchess Mixed' is a robust \u003cstrong\u003eHalf-Hardy Annual\u003c\/strong\u003e (H2).
