TRAILING LOBELIA CASCADE MIX (Lobelia pendula) |
What a gorgeous display of color grown from Lobelia seeds. Lobelia seeds are easy to start and quick to grow. Lobelia is a very popular annual that adds striking color to many diverse settings. Use Lobelia plants in containers, hanging baskets, edging along the flower garden, and as a general ground cover. It's very versatile and loves to bloom all summer long! Lobelia is not drought tolerant, so make sure you water deep and long. The roots must have plenty of moisture to endure the baking hot sun in the middle of the day. Do not let it dry out. Lobelia flowers make a beautiful ground cover that performs well in full sun to partial shade. SOWING: Season: Annual Bloom Season: Summer Bloom Color: Bright blue Growth Rate: Moderate Environment: Full sun to partial shade Soil Type: Well-drained soil, pH 5.5 - 6.5 Temperature: 22C (72F) Light Required: Yes Depth: Press lightly into the soil but do not cover Moisture: Keep soil slightly moist, but not wet until germination Plant Spacing: 12C (5 inches) Fill a seed tray or pot with moist seed compost. Stand the tray in water until completely moist and then drain off the excess water. Sow seeds as thinly as possible over the surface of the compost. The finer you sow them, the easier pricking out will be. Mixing the seeds with light sand may help a more even distribution of seeds. Lightly press the seeds into the compost. Do not cover them with soil as they need light to germinate. Place in warmth 15 to 20°C (60 to 70°F), and keep moist at all times. Germination will take 10 to 14 days. Keep the seedlings in a light position, but shade from bright sun. When large enough to handle transplant 5cm (2in) apart into trays of potting compost. It is easier to transplant little clumps of Lobelia seedlings than to try to transplant single seedlings. |
