I saw this plant in a neighbor's yard last summer and only snapped this one PIC of it. This year, the same neighbor wants to know what it is. AAK! I don't know and cannot identify it. Your assistance please!
Thanks

It is a Lobelia x speciosa.
There are several named cultivars in varying shades of red/pink.

Thanks so much! I checked my three resource books here at home but didn't think to Google it. Nothing I have in my regular resources indicate Lobelia can get that large. Thanks again for your assistance!
Google is wonderful... WHEN you know what something is, or what family it belongs to!!!
Otherwise it is so vaste that it is impossible to find anything.
We grow several named tall Lobelia in pink, red and purple.
One has the wonderful name of Lobelia Pink Elephant!
