The seeds are very small, up to 30,000 seeds in 1 g.
Small lobelia seeds are mixed with dry sand in a ratio of 1:50 for uniformity and are not covered.
Sowing: for seedlings in March-April. After the appearance of the first two true leaves, the seedlings are pricked out. It is better to prick out in small groups of several seedlings.

Flowering: June-October.
