MAKE 2023 A SUSTAINABLE YEAR With These New Years Resolutions - Chances are, you have never thought of your garden – indeed, of all of the space on your land – as a wildlife preserve that represents the last chance we have for sustaining plants and animals that were once common throughout the United States.
Though we believe in different faiths, we hope for the same things throughout the holiday season: a life full of love, peace, and joy.
Winter is often described as cold, dark, and dreary. Driving through suburban communities we see dull and dormant lawns, landscaped beds that are barren and empty, which all in all present a depressing atmosphere. The good news is it doesn’t have to be that way!
Great Blue Lobelia forms a flower spike covered in deep blue flowers from late summer to early fall. The erect, 2-3 ft., stems produce lavender-blue, tubular flowers crowded together on the upper stem. Showy, bright blue flowers are in the axils of leafy bracts and form an elongated cluster on a leafy stem. This blue counterpart of the Cardinal Flower (Lobelia cardinalis) is a most desirable plant for woodland gardens especially since it blooms bright blue in late summer.
