Riviera Rose Lobelia

Riviera Rose is a compact, mounded Lobelia erinus in PanAmerican Seed’s Riviera series, grown for its rose-pink flowers. The compact series is listed at about 5 inches tall and 8 inches wide, with early-spring and spring flowering. ## Garden profile The PanAmerican catalog names Riviera Rose as one of the Riviera color selections. Its series profile describes a low, rounded plant for beds, borders, containers, and color bowls, with partial-sun exposure. The cultivar name distinguishes this rose-colored selection from the separate Riviera Lilac, Sky Blue, and White entries. ## Growing conditions Set plants where they receive partial sun and allow about 8–10 inches of spacing. Lobelia erinus is commonly grown as seasonal bedding, so local temperatures and planting schedules shape its outdoor display. ## Maintenance Water according to the site and container conditions, and remove faded growth if needed to keep the mound tidy.
