Compact Blue Bay Magadi Lobelia (Lobelia erinus Magadi 'Compact Blue Bay') is a breathtaking bicolor variety that mimics the colors of a tropical shoreline. The flowers feature a unique, high-contrast pattern of deep electric blue with a crisp white center, creating a shimmering "eye" effect across the entire plant. Unlike older lobelias, the Magadi series is specifically bred for improved heat tolerance, allowing it to stay lush and colorful even when summer temperatures rise.

As a versatile member of the Lobelia genus, 'Compact Blue Bay' maintains a tight, globe-shaped habit, making it an ideal choice for window boxes, mixed containers, or as a vibrant edge along garden paths. Why you’ll love it: Stunning blue and white bicolor blooms, superior heat performance for a Lobelia, and a tidy, mounding habit that requires no deadheading.

This healthy 4" live flowering plant thrives in full sun to partial shade and requires consistent moisture.
