Description

Remarkable summer blooms await with the early flowering Lobelia 'Infinity Blue Sparkle'. Masses of flowers emerge, bluish-purple in colour, with light markings across the petals.

We discovered this variety in trials in summer 2024, where the iridescent blooms made us stop in our tracks! 'Infinity Blue Sparkle' is probably one of the most outstanding varieties of Lobelia bred in the last 20 years.

See continuous flowering through the warmest months, gathering across a plant of rich green foliage. Ideal for mixed planting schemes, these Lobelia won't take over or overpower the appearance or fragrance of your other planted beauties.

So simple to grow, get these planted in spring to see eye-catching early season blooms, repeat flowering across summer. Happy and cheery when grown in your garden's sunniest spots.

Supplied as a set of six plug plants, ready to grow on and plant out.

Top Tips
Deadhead regularly to encourage more flowers.
Care Information

Planting Advice:

  • Unpack plugs immediately and stand them in water for an hour.
  • Plugs may be slightly dry or yellow after being in a dark box in the post, but they’ll quickly recover.
  • Put them somewhere warm, light and airy such as a windowsill or greenhouse.
  • Plant straight into containers and grow on for a week or two before planting out.
  • Give your plants a good water initially, then only when the top compost starts to dry.
  • They don’t like to be left in standing water.
  • Plant approximately 20cm apart to allow room for them to grow.
  • Feed using a high-potash feed, such as Blooming Fast Superior Soluble Fertiliser for Flowers & Fruits, to encourage flowering.

Aftercare Advice:

  • Regular maintenance and watering are essential to grow fabulous containers that last the whole season.
  • Check and water containers every day in summer, unless the compost is wet.
  • Aim to keep the compost moist but not soggy and avoid wetting the foliage and flowers.
  • From March to June, apply a general-purpose liquid fertiliser once a week.
  • Deadhead and trim your plants regularly to maintain shape and encourage new flowers.
  • Do not allow plants to set seed.
