Lobelia cardinalis (Potted Plant)

The growth is low and dense, as the plant branches willingly, even without trimming. In addition, the mini version rarely forms the long vertical shoots which otherwise characterize Lobelia cardinalis.

It is easily propagated by planting the cut shoots down into the bottom layer. Lobelia cardinalis ‘Mini’ becomes most compact in good light conditions and added CO2, but also thrives well without.

Zoe V. ★★★★★

The branching on this one is exactly as described—it stays low and bushy without me touching it once. I’ve had it in the tank for two weeks and it’s already filling out nicely, no vertical shoots in sight.

Hazel B. ★★★★★

Planted this in the midground a few weeks ago and the dense, low growth is exactly what I wanted—it’s already filling in nicely without any trimming. The mini form hasn’t sent up any of those tall shoots, which keeps the scape tidy.

Eva E. ★★★★★

The branching on this Lobelia is exactly as described—it stays low and bushy without any trimming needed on my end. The lack of those tall vertical shoots is a nice change from other stem plants I've tried, and it fills in the mid-ground perfectly.
