Lobelia cardinalis 'Fried Green Tomatoes' from Plants Nouveau will delight gardeners with its new growth of maroon and deep olive green. As the season progresses and the days grow hotter, the leaves remain maroon on the underside, but the tops turn dusky olive green with maroon highlights. This plant is great for foundation plantings, mass plantings, commercial landscapes, middle of the border, urban gardens, bog gardens or pond edges.
