Annual. Sporting one of the rarest of flower colours - pure cobalt blue - this low growing annual is a gem for the front of the garden or a patio container. Flowers will weave among their companions to peek out high and low. No trellis required! Grow in groups of 3-5 for best effect. Planted in regular, well-draining soil, they are tolerant of heat, drought, and neglect. They don’t require regular feedings, but drenching them with liquid fertilizer in midsummer will stimulate new growth.
Location: Mixed container, Hanging basket, Rock garden
Bloom Period: July to September
Height: 8-10”, spreading to 18”
Plant Spacing: 8”
