LOBELIA, Lavender Waterfall

lobelia-lavender-waterfall

Lobelia Lavender Waterfall displays dainty, star-shaped, bright purple flowers and dark green foliage from the spring to fall. This vegetative type of Lobelia is more heat-tolerant than most others and it does well in both sun or shade. This excellent performer is reliable, easy to grow and maintain. If plants start to get leggy, cut them back to encourage new growth. Lavender Waterfall is a real delight for hanging baskets, patio planters, window boxes, and garden landscapes. It attracts pollinators and are somewhat resistant to deer and rabbits.
