Lobelia Crystal Palace Compacta Seeds
2500 Seeds
Lobelia erinus is a classic edging and container favourite, prized for its intense deep blue flowers set beautifully against rich bronzed foliage. Compact and free flowering, this variety is perfect for borders, hanging baskets, tubs and window boxes, creating dense carpets of colour through the warmer months. Easy to grow and quick to establish, it thrives in sunny positions with consistent moisture.
Plant Height: 15cm
How To Grow
Sow seeds thinly into trays or small pots filled with fine seed raising mix. Gently press the seeds onto the surface without covering, as light is needed for germination. Keep moist and warm during germination. Once seedlings develop several true leaves, thin out and grow on until strong enough to plant out. Harden off before transplanting into the garden or containers, spacing plants evenly for good airflow and coverage.
