I have 3 Queen Victoria Lobelia plants (Cardinal Flowers) in half whiskey barrels. I know they are getting enough sun & water, but as they get ready to bloom, they are drooping over. I have had other flowers in the pots, and they didn't droop. Any suggestions? I have staked them up, but the tops just keep leaning. They feel limp, but the moisture meter shows medium moistness. It also is not the one sided light, because the light reflects from the windows brightly.
