Description

Masses of five-petalled, thin-bodied, flared lavender trumpets open in midsummer on many-branching stems. This plant demands good soil and a sheltered spot but will impress all who see it and is a good plant to baffle the experts! Very few seeds collected.

Sowing Advice

Sow immediately at any time onto preferably a soil-based compost, covering with fine grit to approximately their own depth. Germination MAY be quicker if kept at 15 to 20 degrees C. but many seeds WILL NOT come up the year they are sown, needing winter chilling after sowing, and ONLY come up with natural spring germination.
