Lobelia
Cambridge Blue
(Lobelia erinus)
Cambridge Blue Lobelia has many fans who love its soft, subtile, light blue flowers. Looks great in a pot, a rock garden, a border, a hanging basket, or anywhere a touch of color is needed. The foliage is not often seen because of all the flowers which bloom from spring to fall. In mild winter areas, Lobelia will grow and bloom during the winter. Under ideal growing conditions, Lobelia will reseed.
