TRAILING LOBELIA 'MARINE BLUE'
Lobelia erinus pendula
SKU: 1434-025
Description
This Lobelia flowers up to 1 month earlier than existing trailing types! The very free flowering plants are covered in masses of flowers from a very early stage. Deep blue flower on green foliage, a unique colour in trailing Lobelia.
Type: Annual
Spreading/hanging: 24"
Height: 8"
Location: Part shade or full shade
Note: Ornamental use only. These seeds and/or plants are poisonous.
Seeds per pack: 25 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.
Germination: Start these seeds right away to preserve viability, no matter the time of year. These seeds require light to germinate. Place seeds on the surface of a sterile seed mix (do not bury them), and keep moist and warm until germination, which can take 3-4 weeks. Do not let the soil dry out, or it can end the germination process. Grow in a partly-shady location. A sterile seed-start mix is important with these seeds, as regular potting soil can contain eggs of fungus gnats, which can be detrimental to very small seeds. Be sure the mix is specifically formulated for starting seeds.
