Know before you buy
Yes, the Highflyer Lemon Splash has a trailing and mounding habit that makes it an excellent choice for containers, window boxes, and hanging baskets.
No, this variety is not day-length sensitive. This allows you to plant them for both spring and fall displays without worrying about the changing light cycles.
These seeds are best started indoors and then transplanted into your garden or containers once they are established. They typically take 8 to 15 days to germinate when kept at a soil temperature of 65-70°F.
Since these plants have a spread of 6 to 10 inches, you should space them accordingly to allow for proper airflow and growth. This spacing ensures the plants can fill out their area without becoming overcrowded.
Viola Highflyer Lemon Splash is specifically bred for spring and fall production. While they offer excellent flower power, they generally perform best in the cooler temperatures of early spring or autumn rather than the peak heat of mid-summer.
