Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Thanks to former Far Reaches intern Jeff Erickson for sharing this high altitude Chilean Lobelia with us. This is a dweller of marsh and stream edges above tree line and may be hardy into zone 6b. This makes an evergreen mat of fleshy leaves with light pink 5-petaled flowers. Dude!
