Sweet Talk™ Lavender Splash Cuphea

Sweet Talk™ Lavender Splash is a compact cuphea with bicolor lavender and white flowers. Ball Seed identifies it as Cuphea procumbens selection PAS1169712 and lists an 8–14 inch mounded plant for full sun, flowering from late spring through autumn. Its refined branching and steady nectar supply make it useful in compact pollinator plantings. [Ball Seed](https://info.ballseed.com/PlantInfo?phid=020509522020006). ## Flowers and Placement This is the most compact color in the Sweet Talk series, with a balanced purple-to-white flower display. Use it in a sunny container, border, or mixed annual bed where the two-tone flowers can be seen up close. Bees and hummingbirds visit the nectar-rich blooms. ## Growing Conditions The series is heat-loving and performs best with sun and moderate moisture. Water containers consistently during hot weather, while ensuring free drainage. In frost-prone climates, treat the plant as a warm-season annual; the species is tender to hard freezes. ## Maintenance The compact mounded form needs little shaping. Remove damaged stems if needed; deadheading is not necessary to maintain the flowering display.
