Effortlessly elegant ‘Lady Anne’ is a wonderful choice for your summer bedding pots and containers. In bloom from late May to the first frosts, this compact, purple-flowering annual with delicate hints of pink, will enliven and enrich patio displays. Why not pair this Nemesia with Pelargonium 'Pink Capricorn' and Plectranthus coleoides for a long-lasting seasonal display.
Grow on under glass until all risk of frost has passed and they can be planted outside in a well-prepared bed. Pinch out the growing tips to encourage bushier growth, and feed at regular intervals throughout summer with a high-potash fertiliser. Taller plants may need supporting with brushwood stems in exposed positions.
