Cardinal Flower (Lobelia cardinalis)

  • Wet soil and part shade is my favorite habitat. I need constant moisture. 

     

    I form clumps and am a short lived perennial. Make sure there is clear soil around me so I can self seed.  

     

    Butterflies and hummingbirds find me very attractive but despite my name, cardinals do not.

     

    I’m a pretty addition to any wet area or rain garden.
