Add Lobelia Lucia Dark Blue (Lobelia erinus) to your garden to add a dash of that hard to find blue colored flowers to your garden or container. The small, thin leaves of the green foliage will be mostly hidden when this plant is in full bloom in the spring and summer. Its mounded shape will grow 6 to 12 inches high with a 12 to 24-inch spread. Lobelia Lucia Dark Blue will grow best in part to full sun conditions.

This award-winning plant will bloom continuously throughout the growing season in the ground or in the spiller role in a container garden. It will trail 24 inches over the top of the container or window box. The flowers will attract birds and butterflies. Lobelia are deer resistant and are great annuals for areas with heavy deer populations. 

Laguna Dark Blue Lobelia Care

If you’re growing this plant in a container, allow the soil surface to dry out between waterings and make sure the pot has a drainage hole. Lobelia does not like wet feet. Lobelia Lucia Dark Blue will continue to bloom without deadheading. Lobelia may temporality stop blooming if the night temperature remains above 70 degrees for an extended time. Give the plant a trim to encourage a flush of new growth and more blossoms after the nighttime temperatures drop. Lobelia can also be trimmed to keep its size in check. Apply a balanced fertilizer or compost to your flower beds annually for best plant performance and flower production. Fertilize container-grown plants monthly or as directed on the package.

This plant is typically grown as an annual, but it is hardy in zones 9 to 11. It may survive indoors as a houseplant in full sun conditions.

Laguna Dark Blue Lobelia Spacing

Space individual plants 6 to 10 inches apart, center on center, in your garden. They may be spaced 3 to 4 inches apart from each other and other plants in a container. The blue flower color looks great when paired with bright colors or pastels.

    Not sure...

    Posted by Debra L. Ascarte on Jun 06, 2022

    I was very excited to receive this plant however it was delivered by FedEx upside down (with another plant) despite the clearly visible instructions regarding which side was up. Consequently, both plants were out of their pots with crushed leaves and their buds falling off. I was very disappointed and am hoping they survive the damage with my care and attention.

    Beautiful Blue Flowers!

    Posted by LeAnne Brady on May 19, 2022

    I'm planting them in a faux pond trailing down to look like water with lights shining in them. They are perfect, so much I ordered another. I will take a picture when in full bloom to show everyone. Received in very healthy condition! I highly recommend!

    Lobelia

    Posted by Customer on May 18, 2021

    Very well packed and healthy. VERY pleased . I purchased Dark blue lobelia, dichondria, and potato vine. A bit pricey but hopefully worth avoiding a trip to an under stocked nursery due to the pandemic. I wish them the very best luck!
