Strong colour, reliable performance
Itsy is available in four colours: Light Pink, Magenta, White and the new Blue. It proves that great things often come in small packages. With superior branching and a controlled habit, Itsy is easy to grow, also under cold conditions (>5°C).
But there is more: Itsy easily creates a blanket of its tiny flowers and is remarkably robust. It is specifically noted for its reliability in the North of Germany, where it remains unfazed by heavy rain showers or fresh coastal breezes. From late April until the first frost, Itsy Light Pink consistently pushes out new blooms, creating a dense, pink carpet of colour.
Garden presence with minimal effort
This variety is the perfect companion for modern gardeners who value high-impact results with low maintenance:
- Self-Cleaning: There is no need to remove faded flowers manually, as the plant is naturally self-cleaning.
- Exceptional Coverage: While it reaches a height of only 15–20 cm, it can spread up to 80 cm wide, quickly overflowing the edges of pots and hanging baskets.
- Weather Resilient: It is both sun-hungry and heat-tolerant, making it an ideal choice for the varying summer conditions of the North.
Expert care for the best results
To maximize the performance of Itsy, we recommend planting in a sunny location with high-quality, peat-reduced soil. A regular watering routine, ideally in the morning, and bi-weekly liquid fertilizer later in the season will ensure the plant reaches its full "small but mighty" potential.
