Description How to Grow More Info Delivery

Unique among its species, Verbascum 'Blue Lagoon'® is the world's first 'true-blue' Verbascum, in a shade that is seldom found in the garden. This superb plant was awarded 3rd place at the 2011 Chelsea Flower Show in the best new plants category. These low maintenance plants are well adapted to growing in poor, stony soils where the unusual coloured blooms will create an eye catching display. For maximum garden impact plant it alongside Verbascum 'Clementine' for a stunning contrast. Height 75cm (30"), Spread: 30cm (12").

Pot up plug plants into 11cm pots and grow them on in bright, frost free conditions. When plugs are fully rooted into their pots, acclimatise them to outdoor conditions over 7 to 10 days. Grow Verbascum plants in sunny or semi shaded borders in neutral or alkaline, poor well drained soil.

Established Verbascum plants require little maintenance. Deadhead faded flower spikes to encourage more Verbascum flowers to be produced. Cut back old stems at the base in autumn and remove any damaged and yellowing foliage. In spring, apply a mulch of well rotted manure or garden compost around the base of the plant.

Van Meuwen strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.
