Busy Lizzies
Asked by Kathrine on 11 May, 2008
I have grown busy lizzies from seed. They are growing tall not bushing out and they have so many tiny leaves and very many buds on them at the bottom of the plant, but they do not seem to be getting any bigger. The bud and leaf is dying off before it can develop any further.
Any ideas what is wrong?

I agree with Bren. My Busy Lizzies are very slow this year and they were bought as plugs

Just what I was going to say. I have nipped all mine in the bud and that usually makes 'em nice and bushy.
Lucky you groing then from seed. Never had much luck with seeds, but I try to get as many self sown plants as I can over the winter

When you say they're growing tall, makes me think they might be stretching for the light - put them somewhere sunny!
