Hi,
taipan, you are doing it too!..hope Kevin don't mind...hehehe...
taipan, you got to trim that Lobelia...it is such a burden for a single stem...haha..cut and replant the top, left the bottom part as it is, soon it will produces 2-3 new sideshoots growth...more stems for you..looks ugly at first, but be patient, after a week or so, you got new growth..good luck..
Regards
