Lobelia ‘Early Springs Magenta’

FN 3.1 LOB Early Springs Magenta 0001
When you’ve got the blues—add Magenta!

Wow. Lobelia is our go-to for a true blue, so you could probably call this new shade from the Early Springs series a true Magenta. It fits right in with our current Early Springs selections—the colors in this series are evenly matched, so they come together easily for showy all-lobelia displays. We find that Magenta makes Dark Blue and Sky Blue pop—or vice versa.

Early Springs from Ball FloraPlant has been bred for improved heat tolerance. We’ve gotten an abundance of flowers from early spring all the way into the warmer days of early summer in full sun, so we’ve been happy with this series. Plants are upright and compact so they behave nicely in smaller containers and combos.

We grow our Early Springs Lobelia in the 4.5-inch pot. Look for Dark Blue, Sky Blue, and White in addition to the brilliant Magenta.
