Thompson & Morgan Lobelia Monsoon 650 Seed
£1.99
Lobelia - Monsoon
Unique cascading version of ‘Crystal Palace’ with beautiful deep blue flowers. An added bonus is the attractive foliage which turns from green to bronze as the plants mature, giving them long-lasting appeal. Perfect for baskets, window boxes, containers or trailing over low walls and rockeries.
Sow lobelia from late winter to mid spring on the surface of a good seed compost and gently firm down. Place the seed tray in a propagator at a temperature of 18-24C (65-75F) or seal it inside a polythene bag. Keep the soil damp but not wet. Do not exclude light as this aids germination which usually takes 14-21 days.
When seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant and grow them on in cooler conditions until large enough to plant outdoors. When lobelia plants are well grown and all risk of frost has passed, acclimatise them to outdoor conditions over 7 to 10 days. Transplant outdoors in full sun or semi-shade on moist, fertile, well drained soil at a distance of 10cm (4") apart.
Feed and water lobelia plants frequently throughout the summer to promote an endless supply of delicate lobelia flowers. Caution: Contact with the white sap may irritate the skin and eyes.Out of stock
