watering
Water your Lobelia 'Tania' deeply once week, ensuring that the entire root system can be moistened. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings. Avoid overwatering, which can cause wilting and root rot. During the hotter months, Lobelias may need to be watered more frequently. Feel the soil before watering to check for dryness. Keep in mind that humid conditions may require less frequent watering.
sunlight
Lobelia 'Tania' is a shade-loving plant and does best with at least 4-5 hours of dappled shade with indirect sunlight each day. Morning sun is best, as the plant can become scorched in the intense midday summer sun. During the winter months, the plant can benefit from some direct sunlight in the morning, but should only receive moderate amounts.
pruning
For Lobelia 'Tania', pruning should be done lightly in early spring to promote bushiness and more blooming. To accomplish this, remove faded flowers and thin out or pinch back the tips of stems that are too tall or unruly. This will help the plant to develop more branches and give it a tidier appearance. After pruning, feed the Lobelia with a balanced liquid fertilizer to help promote blooming.
