Lobelia Princess Rosa

My Upright Lobelia has now 'splayed' with new Foiliage in the Centre. Is this normal or should it all have remained upright?

    Need a photo to understand what you are saying.

    I expect that's just a weather problem. If there's nothing around it to help it stay upright, it may well have done that, especially if you had the weather we had 2 nights ago with gale force winds and heavy rain for over twelve hours. I spent a lot of time yesterday re doing supports on tall plants  :)

    A photo will help though, as said.  :)

    Just put a few twigs around it to support it while it grows  :)
    It's fine other than that. I don't think it'll be happy long term in a pot, but it isn't one that I grow.

    Don't be tempted to feed them it much as that will just promote lots of soft growth which then makes it hard for it to support itself  :)
