MEANING OF LOBELIA
I have asked so many people about the meaning of Lobelia, because I was hearing that name since my childhood. But nobody knows the meaning, including some of the teachers of the school. So I asked google, it returned some definitions. According to the Seach Engine giant, it is a kind of flower. Dictionary.com says its meaning as: 'Any of numerous plants of the genus Lobelia, having terminal racemes of variously colored flowers with a bilabiate corolla.'
And Wikipedia says: 'Lobelia (also known as Indian Tobacco, Asthma Weed, Pukeweed, or Vomitwort) is a genus in the family Campanulaceae, comprising some 200 species, some of which are cultivated in gardens. These include Lobelia cardinalis (Cardinal Flower or Indian Pink), Lobelia siphilitica (Blue Lobelia), Lobelia fulgens and Lobelia erinus, as well as some hybrids.'
