The Blue Lobelia brings a unique pop of azure freshness into any landscape design. This hardy perennial is easy to care for and very versatile in its application. You can expect its bright azure flowers to bloom in the late summer and attract various butterflies, bees, and hummingbird species.

Blue Lobelia Has Many Names 

You may hear this perennial referred to by many names, including Lobelia Siphilitica and Blue Cardinal Flower. This pollinator perennial boasts large, bright green foliage that can reach a height of two to four feet and a spread of one to two feet. This upright perennial will have trumpet-shaped flower clusters that sit at the apex of its long stems.

Blue Lobelia Plants are Shade Thriving

This hardy perennial flourishes in many different environmental conditions. It's native to the eastern and central parts of Canada and the United States and is a member of the Campanulaceae family. Its bright green leaves have a spearheaded appearance with uniquely serrated edges.

Blue Lobelia Blooms Late Fall

When its flowers bloom in the later months of fall, this perennial will starkly contrast other perennials in your garden. Each flower is a bright azure color parted into two more extensive lip segments. The upper lip is split into two segments, and the lower lip is divided into three. This creates an ideal landing pad for all these bumblebees looking to pollinate.

Blue Lobelia Is Deer Resistant

Blue Lobelia has a fibrous root system and is resistant to deer and rabbits. It's widely used to add vertical interest to landscaping designs. This herbaceous, showy perennial, and deep-hued blooms have a reasonably moderate growth rate, allowing it to multiply to fill open space. Its densely packed clusters will provide a prominent introduction of much-needed color into any garden setup.
