Pot up Anagallis plug plants into 9cm pots and grow them on in frost free conditions until large enough to plant outdoors. When Blue Pimpernel plants are well grown, acclimatise them to outdoor conditions over 7 to 10 days. Transplant outdoors in any moderately fertile, well drained soil in full sun.

Water Blue Pimpernel plants regularly until they fully established. Anagallis dislikes cold, wet conditions and is best brought into a cold greenhouse during the winter months. Although perennial, Anagallis can be a relatively short lived. Lift and divide overcrowded clumps of Blue Pimpernel in Spring to maintain plant vigour.

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.
