Variegated lobelia

It's one of the cheapest annuals to buy as young plants and one of the most reliable regardless of the amount of sunshine. This variated lobelia has produced a wonderful display on the patio  and complements the geraniums (top left), lavatera (top right) and petunias (lower left) and prolongs the displays which can take such a battering with inclement wind and rain. The extra photos are other lobelia shots.
