What are my plants!?

jimbugalee

A few months ago I ordered some mini plants from Suttons on special offer. Stupidly I threw away the tags which told me what they were!! They're coming along nicely but I wondered whether there was any clever gardeners out there who may be able to tell me what each one is? Then I can get an idea where/how to plant them.

Any help appreciated ... I know I was a numpty for throwing away the labels!

Ps no 3's are difficult to keep .... they keep wilting!

I think number 2 is Petunia
Number 3 is Lobelia
and number 4 is Bizzie Lizzie

and ... ahem ...... number one is a Leek. (Only kidding).

Excellent - that's a good start. Going to see and see what the flowers are like now.

No idea what no 1 is .... maybe they are leeks?! I can't see how they would grow into flowers!

Number 1 could be Tradescantia (don't know the full name ).

jimbugalee

oh, that sounds promising. Not sure if I recognise the name from when I did have the labels.

Ps any tips for my lobelia? They just fall over and die!

No 1 could be gazinia. Lobelia is very tempramental. Don't overwater or they will curl their toes up. Leave them until they're big enough to go into your container or border

If you bought online suttons I think have your order details this might eliminate some plants

agreed....
