Lobelia 'Cascade Improved Mixed': Transform Your Summer Displays

Lobelia 'Cascade Improved Mixed' (Lobelia erinus) is a classic trailing annual renowned for its long-lasting, vibrant colour. This improved mix combines both early and late-flowering varieties, ensuring your baskets and containers burst with blue, white, and purple blooms from early summer right through to the first frosts.

Why Choose 'Cascade Improved Mixed'?

• Extended Flowering: Enjoy non-stop colour as new varieties take over when others fade—no gaps in your summer display.
• Dramatic Trailing Growth: Each plant trails up to 45cm (18") and spreads up to 15cm (6"), creating full, cascading arrangements ideal for hanging baskets or window boxes.
• Garden Ready Plants: Supplied as robust young plants, these lobelias establish quickly so you can enjoy fast results without the wait.
• Effortless Maintenance: Lobelia thrives in well-drained soil with regular watering and feeding. Deadheading isn't required—plants naturally renew their blooms.
• Versatile Uses: Perfect for combining with upright bedding plants or trailing alongside petunias, verbena, or bacopa for a lush mixed container.
• Optional Water-Saving Basket: Upgrade with a BloomAround basket featuring a large water reservoir to reduce watering frequency while supporting over 13 plants.

Cultivation & Care Guide

• Planting Time: Plant outside after the last frost—typically late May in the UK.
• Light Requirements: Prefers full sun but tolerates partial shade.
• Soil Preference: Grows best in moist but well-drained soil; suitable for most standard composts used in containers.
• Caring Tips: Water regularly, especially in hot spells or when grown in containers. Feed fortnightly with a balanced liquid fertiliser during peak flowering. No pruning or deadheading required—plants self-clean.
• Mature Size: Trails up to 45cm (18"), spreads up to 15cm (6").

Create Stunning Displays

'Cascade Improved Mixed' shines in hanging baskets, window boxes, patio containers, and even as ground cover at the front of borders. Pair with upright geraniums, begonias, or marigolds for dynamic contrast. Its soft trailing habit adds movement and texture to any planting scheme.
