The sturdy petals are resistant to rain and wind, allowing the plant to retain its fresh appearance – even after a rain shower.

Easy to maintain

The Viola cornuta F1 Admire® Marina is a low-maintenance plant that's easy to care for, even for novice gardeners. Here are some care tips for optimal flowering:

1. Location: Sun or partial shade – the more light, the richer the flowering.

3. Water: Water regularly; prevent drying out but avoid stagnant water.

4. Remove dead flowers: This encourages new flowering.

5. Feeding: Provide liquid plant food for flowering plants weekly.

The Marina is beautiful as a solitary plant in pots, but also looks great in combination with other Admire® varieties, such as Admire® Deep Blue, Deep Marina or Lemon Purple Wing, for a harmonious play of colours.
