$2.49
Cardinal Flower is named for its bright red flowers, which attract hummingbirds and swallowtail butterflies. They contain "lobeline," a compound that repels herbivores. The flowers bloom from the bottom up for several weeks. These plants thrive in moist, rich soil and can grow in full sun to partial shade. Cardinal Flower is eye-catching and ideal for gardens or wetlands.
Although parent plants don't last more than a few years, they produce many seeds that help new plants grow. Making sure seeds touch the soil allows the colony to renew itself. Their blooms are also great for cutting.
