How long will the Lisanthus Blue Rose bloom? I am looking for a tall blue flowering annual that will bloom as long as Salvia and Geraniums for a red, white, and blue garden. Is there a very tall blue flower to use with President Cannas, also?

Lisianthus will bloom all summer if you keep the spent blossoms cut off. Have you considered growing Delphiniums with your Cannas? Or try Michaelmas Daisies (a purple-blue), or African Daisies (blue ray-type flowers with yellow centers). Enjoy your patriotic garden!
