Description

Mounds of purple-tinted leaves are soon decorated in spring by long, thin, pink trumpets with white flared mouths opening on striking, purple, thin, dividing stems. When grown with no surrounding competition this dwarf plant makes a superb specimen.

Sowing Advice

For best results, sow immediately onto a good soil-based compost. Cover the seeds with fine grit or compost to approximately their own depth. They can be sown at any time, and germination can sometimes be quicker if kept at 15 to 20 degrees C. We sow most seeds in an unheated greenhouse and wait for natural germination, as many seeds have built-in dormancy mechanisms, often waiting for natural spring germination, hence giving them a full season of growth.
