  Lobelia rogersii (McVaugh’s Lobelia)

  $12.00

  Native Lobelia blooms or months on end.  It was covered with flowers until the snow came in January. They foliage stayed green all winter.  Butterflies and hummingbirds love it. It adapts to wide range of soil moisture. I had been calling it Downy Lobelia (Lobelia puberula) but I think this was a mistake. The undersides of the leaves are white. It is definitely not Lobelia siphilitica which some “play native nurseries” are selling as that is not native on the coast.  I wish I had pictures.
