Great in Mass Plantings and in Containers

The Cuphea Lavender Lace, 'Cuphea rosea', is a Proven Selections plant that is used in combos and containers. Lavender Lace can be used as a landscape or ornamental plant.

They produce masses of purple flowers from spring through fall. Summers heat will not stop these unique flowers. In warm climates it is an ever blooming perennial.

The stems become slightly woody, arching and weather tough conditions. Place them in well drained soil and then look for Hummingbirds as they begin to flower. Pinching in early summer will promote branching. For zones 9-11, this plant can also be a perennial.

* Months of blooms spring through fall
* Thrives in heat
* Easy to grow

Want to know how deep does the bed need to be for cuphea to grow

Hi Toby,

Thank you so much for reaching out with your question about growing cuphea in your Florida garden! We’re delighted to hear about your gardening plans and are happy to help ensure your cuphea thrives.

Cuphea plants generally prefer a planting bed depth of about 12 to 15 inches to accommodate their root system, with well-draining soil being key to their success. Since Florida soils can vary, you might want to amend the bed with organic matter like compost to improve nutrition and drainage. Also, ensuring the bed receives plenty of sunlight will really encourage healthy flaskflower growth (cuphea’s common name).

If you’d like, we have some great resources on planting guidelines and care tips specific to cuphea on our website—feel free to visit our Plant Library or get in touch anytime for more personalized advice.

We hope your new cuphea plants bring vibrant color and joy to your garden this season!

Want to know how deep does the bed need to be for cuphea to grow

Hi Toby,

Thank you so much for reaching out with your question about growing cuphea in your Florida garden! We’re happy to assist you in helping your plants thrive. For cuphea, it’s best to prepare a planting bed that’s about 6 to 8 inches deep, ensuring the soil is well-draining and rich in organic matter. Since cuphea loves full sun and tends to do well in warm climates like Florida’s, this depth helps provide adequate room for healthy root growth. Also, consider adding some compost or mulch to retain moisture and keep roots happy during the warmer months.

If you need further guidance on care or soil preparation, we’ve got plenty of resources available on our website, or feel free to contact us anytime!
