A particularly handsome colour selection from the ‘Fan’ series. The narrow-petalled, scarlet flower spikes are borne on well branched plants from late summer into autumn. Dark bronze-green foliage contrasts perfectly with the vibrant blooms and provides a rather exotic feel.

Generally grown as a biennial, Lobelia speciosa ‘Fan Scarlet’ enjoys a moist, somewhat boggy soil and looks superb planted at the edge of ponds and streams.
