About Lobelia feayana A.Gray

Lobelia feayana, commonly called bay lobelia or Feay's lobelia, is a species of bellflower endemic to Florida. It is a perennial dicot in the Campanulaceae family that grows in moist areas such as ditches, and is often spotted along roadsides. When growing in clusters, its flowers collectively look like a purple haze. The flowers are pollinated by bees; each has five petals, with colors ranging from bluish to lavender to purplish-pink. It is sometimes mistaken for blue toadflax (Linaria canadensis), a species that can also grow in groupings.
