Mixed Lofos Collection

Lofos is a very fast grower, with the foliage tending to establish first and then, once the warm summer days arrive in June, the pretty flowers will commence, continuing thereafter right until first frost in the autumn.

Top Tips

Plant your plugs into pots straight away, let them grow for 4-5 weeks before planting out.

Care Guide

• Initially your Lofos plants should be potted into 7.5-9cm (3-3?in) pots using a good quality compost. If planting directly into a basket, allow 3-4 plants for a 12-14in basket, or 6 for a really dense effect.
• Grow on in a greenhouse, conservatory or indoors at a minimum temperature of 15?C (60F), moving outside during late May or early June and only when the risk of frost has passed.
• In the early stages keep the plants on the dry side and provide good ventilation as the young plants can be susceptible to the fungal disease.
• Pinch out the growing tip to produce a bushy habit when the plants have reached a height of about 10cm (4in).
• To keep your plants growing vigorously keep the plants well-watered and apply a balanced liquid feed at 10 day intervals.
• Mature plants can be over-wintered in a greenhouse at a minimum temperature of 5?C (41F).
