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

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.
