Nursery contributed plant descriptions

(white) So, apparently the Lobelia 'Sparkle Divine' is named for a drag queen, so when we found this very nice pure white selection of Lobelia siphilitica, it only made sense to follow the pattern with another drag name, this one for a character from "Priscilla Queen of the Desert" It is a pretty darn good name, and a very nice little lobelia, which, like most lobelias, is happiest when grown on the wet side.
