Description

The new Bidens Lemon Moon has seduced us with its generous two-colour yellow and white blooms. It is an exceptional annual that will brighten up your flower boxes and pots.

The Bidens Lemon Moon is a trailing plant up to 30-40 cm. Its 3-4 cm (1.2-1.6 in) diameter blooms are a golden yellow with wide creamy white edges. This annual plant produces long flexible stems that allow it to easily blend with other plants to create beautiful tone-on-tone combinations! Its dark green, finely cut foliage creates a light and airy effect that showcases its summer flowering. An easy-care variety, it will flower until the first frosts on your sun-facing window sills, balconies or patios.

It is fast-growing in well-drained and fertile soil with a sunny aspect. This annual requires regular, but not excessive watering during the summer period: let the surface of the substrate dry out in-between waterings. For optimal results, don't forget to regularly provide it with fertilizer!

Less vigorous than the classic yellow variety, the Bidens Lemon Moon pairs well with other annuals such as bacopas, calibrachoas, diascias, or even euphorbia Diamond Frost. It is a brand new variety resulting from the selective work of the Thompson and Morgan company in England.

WARNING - Please note: our young plants in mini-pots are professional products intended for experienced gardeners: upon receipt, transfer and store them in a sheltered area (veranda, greenhouse, cold frame...) at a temperature above 14C° for a few weeks before planting outdoors once any risk of frost has definitively passed.
