A dense covering of vivid, violet-blue flowers smothering neat, dark bronze-green foliage. This compact, half-hardy annual is perfect for rockeries, baskets and patio pots or for mixing with other lobelias to drift at the front of a sunny border.

One of the darkest leaved and flowering blues, once these Lobelia ‘Crystal Palace’ seedlings are settled in, they will make a ‘Great Exhibition’ over the summer months.

Please note that the pot in the photograph is not supplied with the plant (which is sent out in a simple nursery alternative), but we have a wide and wonderful range on our website to choose from.


Garden care:
Pot up and grow on under glass until all risk of frost has passed and they can be planted outside in a well-prepared bed.

Pinching out the growing tips will encourage them to become bushier, and feed with a high-potash fertiliser at regular intervals throughout the summer.
