  • šŸŒæ Compact and Mounded Growth: Ideal for maintaining a tidy garden look, these plants are perfect for edges, small spaces, or as foreground in layered plantings.

  • šŸŒž Early Bloomers: Among the first to bloom in your garden, ensuring that your space is filled with color from spring through autumn.

Optimal Growing Conditions:

  • Sowing Time: Best planted from spring to autumn to take advantage of the growing seasons.

  • Sow Depth: Seeds should be sown at a depth of 2 mm, a shallow placement that aids in optimal germination.

  • Spacing: Allow about 25 x 25 cm between plants. This spacing gives each plant enough room to thrive without overcrowding, promoting healthy growth and fullness.

Garden Uses and Styling Tips:

  • Containers and Hanging Baskets: Their mounded habit and vibrant colors make Riviera Mix ideal for use in containers and baskets, where their beauty can be appreciated up close.

  • Front of Border Plantings: Use these lobelias at the front of flower borders where their compact size and colorful blooms can be easily seen.

  • Mass Planting: Planting several together can create an impressive display of dense color thatā€™s sure to draw the eye.

Care Tips:

  • Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but well-drained. Lobelias thrive with regular watering, especially in hotter, drier periods.

  • Feeding: Use a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every few weeks during the growing season to encourage vibrant blooms and healthy foliage.

  • Deadheading: While often not necessary, removing faded flowers can encourage more blooms and extend the flowering period.
