WISHBONE FLOWER Torenia fournieri
SKU: 1765-5
Description
Torenia grow equally well in sun or partial shade. The cool Torenia Wishbone Flower colors are a welcome relief during the heat of summer. Wishbone Flowers bloom throughout the summer and fall and make good companions for other flowering plants.
Keep the plants well watered, especially in hot weather, but be careful not leave the plants standing in water. Apply soluble plant food regularly to help maintain growth throughout the long flowering period. Deadheading Wishbone Flowers is not necessary. Plants will sometimes drop their flower seeds on bare ground and self-seed, so watch for the seedlings in the spring.
Type: Annual
Height: 8", 20cm
Location: Sun or part shade, equally happy in both
Seeds per pack: 5 Pelleted seeds
About pellets: Pelleting is a coating that is sometimes applied to small seeds, to help with handling and sowing. Once the seeds are sown and watered, the pelleting is designed to immediately disintegrate to release the seeds.
Note: Ornamental use only. These seeds and/or plants are poisonous.
Germination: Start these seeds early indoors up to 10 weeks before the last frost date. It is important to use a sterile seeds start mix. Keep continually moist during the germination period. The plants should never dry out.
