Notes

'Laguna Ultraviolet' lobelia (Lobelia erinus 'Laguna Ultraviolet') is an annual for rock gardens, pollinator gardens, and accents. It grows well in cool weather and can ride out a light frost. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Its erect stems bloom in early to late spring, and butterflies and bees visit the flowers. Deer usually look elsewhere for a meal.

Pairs well with Supertunia Vista Bubblegum petunia, Sedge, and Empress of India nasturtium.
