Primrose Lobelia Cardinalis Queen Victoria Cardinal Flower 9Cm Pot Perennial Plant from B&Q

Primrose

Bright red flowers and maroon foliage. Position: full sun or partial shade Soil: deep, fertile, moist soil Depth of water: 0-15cm Rate of growth: average Flowering period: August to October Hardiness: frost hardy (may need winter protection) Stunning spikes of scarlet, five-petalled flowers rise up in late summer among beautiful, beetroot-coloured foliage. This gorgeous cardinal flower brings a splash of vibrant colour to the garden just as many perennials are fading. It is excellent for filling gaps left by early-flowering perennials in a mixed or herbaceous border and suits a planting scheme based on 'hot' colours. Garden care: Divide large clumps of plants every second year in spring. Protect the crown of the plant during winter with a thick, dry mulch, such as straw. This moisture-loving plant can also be grown at the edges of a pond, and will tolerate water levels up to 15cm deep if potted up into a basket with aquatic compost.
