Dwarf Cardinal flower

Description

Lobelia cardinalis 'small form' is a compact cultivar with coin-shaped leaves and a smaller stature than its standard counterpart. It is relatively easy to care for, requiring sufficient light (0.5 watts per liter) and CO2 injection for optimal growth. A balanced supply of micro- and macronutrients is also essential (NO3 10-20 mg/l, PO4 1-2 mg/l). Under ideal conditions, the plant grows bushy with a nice green color and produces many daughter plants that can be propagated by cutting.
