Thompson & Morgan Asarina Purpusii Victoria Falls Seeds

Bring a burst of dramatic cerise-purple to your garden displays with trailing asarina purpusii 'Victoria Falls', perfect for hanging baskets, containers or window boxes as its vibrant antirrhinum-like flowers cascade elegantly from arching stems. You'll enjoy blooms from early May right through to the first frosts, with each seed packet containing approximately twenty seeds and full growing instructions to help you nurture these half-hardy perennials. Position in full sun for best results, and watch as your outdoor space is transformed with colour and charm. How to grow: Sow from early February to mid-April in a good seed compost just covering the seed with a thin layer of compost or vermiculite. Germination takes 14-21 days at 20-24C (70-75F). Seal in a polythene bag after sowing and don't exclude light. When large enough to handle, transplant the seedlings into 7.5cm (3in) pots, and grow on in cooler conditions. When well rooted, plant into baskets or container, using a good soil-less compost with some Sow-Lite (vermiculite) added. Leave in a shaded greenhouse for two weeks and then gradually acclimatise to outdoor conditions for 10-15 days before moving outdoors, after all risk of frost has passed to a sunny, sheltered spot.
