| Description |
One of only two species found here in the Eastern United States. Most of the species are tropical, but we are very fortunate to have this species growing among us in the Eastern forest. Indian Pink is a outstanding tough perennial that produces 20 - 60 rich red trumpet shaped flowers that flare open or recurve open at their ends and show off the bright yellow interior. Hummingbirds and butterflies find this plants flowers magnetic to their desires! Slow growing, though, reliable and long lived. Reseeds slowly in favorable conditions, which are rich well drained partial sunny areas. Spigelia marilandica matures to approximately 18"High x 2'Wide. Rarely offered!
