Potted Plants

Great Blue Lobelia is a garden standout with its large flower spikes that attract lots of bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds and also produces lobeline to naturally deter pests. Hardy and easy-going that thrives with lots of moisture and heat. Deadhead for continuous blooms and achieve a bushier look by simply pinching back stems (avoid cutting in the fall). Elevate your garden with the charm and resilience of Lobelia siphilitica, a true performer in any landscape. Be mindful, Lobeline and lobelamine alkaloids are mildly toxic to humans and pets.

Size options:

-50 cell tray (each cell is 5” deep x 2.25” wide)

-Pot (each pot is 2.5” x 3.5”)
