- Brightens gardens into late summer
For a splash of colour until late into the summer, with their tall spikes of deep maroon. The glowing scarlet blooms look amazing when other flowers have faded. These hardy perennials are ideal for gap-filling in borders and by ponds and streams. Ideal for cottages, wildlife, exotic, and water gardens. Grow Lobelia in a sheltered position in the sun or semi-shade on reliably moist, fertile soil. Lobelia cardinalis copes well with boggy soils and can be planted at the edge of ponds and streams. Cut back old lobelia foliage in autumn and apply a dry mulch of bark chips or straw to protect the crown of the plant during winter. Lobelia cardinalis is a short-lived perennial that divides every 2 years in spring to maintain its vigour. Caution: irritant to skin and eyes.
