Lobelia ‘Monet Moment’


Hybrid Lobelia

USDA Zone: 4-9

Plant number: 1.328.360


The perennial Lobelias have upright spikes of large flowers, not at all like the more familiar trailing types grown in hanging baskets. They are terrific plants for the moist garden, adapting well to ‘wet feet', but growing equally well under average conditions. This tall selection bears deep rose-pink flowers through late summer and fall, over dark-green leaves. In colder regions plants should be mulched well for the winter. Nice for cutting. Attractive to both butterflies and hummingbirds. Clumps may be easily divided in the spring. CAUTION: Harmful if eaten.
