Lobelia cardinalis ‘Queen Victoria’
The perennial Lobelias have upright spikes of large flowers, not at all like the more familiar trailing types grown in hanging baskets. They are terrific plants for the boggy garden, adapting well to ‘wet feet’, but growing equally well under average conditions.

- Average size: Reaches 35″ tall and 18″ wide.
- Plant characteristic: Herbaceous
Anemone hupehensis ‘Prince Henry’
Japanese Anemone are outstanding plants for the late summer and fall garden. The branching stems of poppy-like flowers are superb for cutting.
- Light need: Full Sun to Partial Shade
- Average size: Reaches 31″ tall and 35″ wide
- Plant characteristic: Herbaceous
Orange New Zealand Sedge
