Lobelia hybrida, Hort. The hybrid garden lobelias are mostly of French origin, and they are little known in the American trade, although they are occasionally imported by amateurs. It is doubtful whether they will endure the winters of the northern states, although they make excellent pot subjects for blooming in the summer border. They may also be planted in the open and lifted on the approach of winter: or new stock can be raised from divisions of the old plants, or from offsets, or from seeds. Many of these hybrids are most showy, and they should be better known in Amer. It is probable that they are derived chiefly from L. fulgent, although they are said to come largely from L. cardinalis, but L. fulgens and L. cardinal are confused amongst gardeners. L. syphilitica has also, apparently, entered into some of these hybrid derivatives, particularly those with blue or purple colors, and L. amaena is supposed by some to be involved (see suppl. list). These hybrids are sometimes known collectively as L. hybrida and L. perennis hybrida. Two recent forms deserve separate mention (Nos. 11, 12): The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
